kintecus missing ipconfig.exe output when trying to generate ID

Kintecus creates a 'unique computer ID' which you need for the program to run.
this is created when the program starts for the first time. at this point it
crashes in wine with the following output:

wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\ipconfig.exe"
File not found

(see the attachment for the complete output)

essentially, it is not missing 'ipconfig.exe' but it's output, i.e. it doesn't
use 'ipconfig.exe' to make changes but only to gather information about your
machine.

a solution was provided here:
http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?p=46634#46634

essentially, a fake but executable 'ipconfig.exe' is set up, that echoes the
normal output of the real ipconfig.exe. 



other information: wine version 1.2rc7, mac OS X 1.6, kintecus 3.96
