If something will not work for you please fill a bug report at http://bugs.winehq.org . In case if builtin DCOM support doesn't work as expected you can run "winetricks dcom98" to use native DCOM instead (you can download winetricks at http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks ). If this workaround helps you should mention this in your bug report as well.
IANAL, but for being legal this way requires a user to have valid Windows Licence (or so). One of at least Win98, AFAIK.
AFAIK copyright only governs copying/distribution. You may need a license to redistribute MS-DCOM, but since it's Microsoft itself who distributes it in their website I don't think they have a basis to claim damages.
(IANAL, either)
