           Summary: Falcon 4.0 AF: Multiplayer over Internet not working
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.33
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: matteo.hausner at gmail.com


Although playing via LAN, the internet multiplayer mode of Falcon 4.0 Allied
Force is not working as it should. The game says that it "can't resolve the
entered address".

I think this bug might be very similar to the internet multiplayer problem of
IL-2 Sturmovik.
A user on AppDB wrote: "The cause of the problem is, that windows returns the
IP address of the network-device if the hostname is resolved, while wine
returns "127.0.0.1". So when Sturmovik asks for the IP of "HOSTNAME" it gets
only that instead of a valid NIC-IP."

So this one might be an easy one to fix in the end.
