[Wine]Winetools not working on my desktop

[Sean Funk]

So, I installed Wine 20050111 and Winetools 2.1 on my desktop which is
a P4 HT 3.4ghz ICH6 chipset based box. Redhat seems to function just
fine on it, and I'm running the latest stable SMP Kernel.

My problem is included in the following test. When I launch WineTools,
it starts complaining about not being able to create directories and
the such, but I'm running this as root (I can hear the groans now, but
really, this machine doesn't normally have itnernet connectivity, it's
just a play machine right now while it doesn't have windows on it) so
there shouldn't be any permissions problems, right?

Included is the text of the beginning error messages. The list gets
quite longer when you try to create a crive and what not, it's
actually just the same error messages over and over really ecause it
can't create directories, can't find them, etc.

Any help on this is appreciated. I won't be at the computer while I'm
at work but I'll try the suggestions when I get home.

Thanks in advance!
