Thanks for the reply Chips & eps

WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) is a vital service running in windows

Windows Apps can do various things using WMI the case here being getting network info (adapter name, state etc.)

Already there have been discussions regarding WMI installation in WINE forums.

The link below talks of the same stuff but the issue there is different.

Having read that, I went for wine-1.1.43 hoping to succeed; unfortunately couldn't  :( 

Thanks, 
Sanjeev
