WINE and IO permissions

[Robert Tilley]

In my latest attempt to use Wine to run Forte Agent, these were my 
observations.

tilleyrw at debian:~/vmware-distrib$ wine '/mnt/C/Program 
Files/Agent/agent.exe'
/usr/bin/wine: [: too many arguments

An internal Wine error was that write permissions did not exist in 
/mnt/C/Program Files/Agent/DATA' which is the directory where Agent stores 
program information.

Any ideas here?  I have heard many people claim to have used Agent with 
Wine on this newsgroup.

TIA!
