[Bug 24150] New: Wine does not select the right network interface when vmware network interfaces are up

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24150

Summary: Wine does not select the right network interface when
                    vmware network interfaces are up
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.1
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

When using any windows program through wine, if the vmware virtual network
interfaces (vmnet0, vmnet1 ...) are up vmware incorrectly selects those virtual
interfaces for networking instead of the correct one (wlan0).

I assume you mean, any Wine process selects the wrong interface, rather than
vmware?  If vmware is selecting the wrong interface, that's a vmware bug.

How do you determine which interface the app is selecting?  Can you provide at
least one app that does this, along with steps to reproduce it?

You are right, I meant that wine incorrectly selectes the network interface to
use in windows program, sorry.

An easy program to test this withis eMule. eMule has a web server and with that
feature enable in preferences, you can see the ip address the web server is
using on the servers tab, in the right panel. If vmware interfaces are up, the
web server takes the ip adress from those virtual interfaces. If you disable
the vmware network interfaces (through Vmware's Virtual Network Editor) the
emule web server gets the right ip from wlan0. Also while the vmware interfaces
are up, the program is unable to connect.

In general, Wine doesn't do anything special here:  winsock calls are passed
more or less unmodified to the sockets code in Linux, so this may be a
difference in behavior between Linux and Windows, rather than a Wine bug.  Just
in case, could you attach a +iphlpapi,+winsock trace?

I didn't spot anything in the logs.  Could you post the output of route -n both
with and without the vmware interfaces up?

This has not been updated for over 900 days.

Is this still an issue in 1.6-rc1 or higher or is this abandoned ?
