            Bug ID: 38076
           Summary: GameRanger: unimplemented function
                    dnsapi.dll.DnsFlushResolverCacheEntry_A
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.34
          Hardware: x86
               URL: http://www.gameranger.com/download/
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: dnsapi
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: jhansonxi at gmail.com
      Distribution: Ubuntu

GameRanger is an advertisement and subscription-based online multiplayer game
front-end for many games, especially old titles.  Free download link to the
installer in the URL.

The client requires mfc42.dll (winetricks -q mfc42) and Adobe Flash.  The Flash
12 install option was broken in my version of winetricks but the client opens
the default web browser to the Flash download page.  I didn't have any problems
installing Flash 16.

During installation the client will ask for an email address and new password
to create an account (will send verification link to the email account).

When launched, it will park in the system tray.  IIRC it then shows the release
notes and asks for the login credentials.  It gets stuck logging in (animated
dialog) due to this missing function.

The workaround is to use a native dnsapi.dll.  I used the SP2GDR (Service Pack
2 General Distribution Release) version from the WindowsXP KB945553 security
update to get it working.  The update hung for some reason when I started it :D
so I simply copied the DLL out of the temp directory it created.

I think bug #32204 may the same problem but the reporter never verified it.
