IPX support in Starcraft - Why can't I get it working?

I can't seem to get IPX going in Starcraft. It gives me "Unable to 
initialize network provider" in a pretty dialog box (as per usual). I have 
IPX in kernel, the interface configured for 802.2 frame type, and some IPX 
RIP/SAP daemon going. The kernel's IPX is configured without the "Full 
internal IPX network" thing. Apparently (from my reading) this would be a 
bad thing. I compiled wine, and it says it finds "GNU style IPX support". 
I'm gathering that's a good thing.

Any ideas? I haven't seen many people commenting on this... I've been 
using WINE 20011108.

ps: If you have any suggestions to help debug this, please throw em this 
way.. I'm looking for some insight into this if possible, not necessarily 
just a fix.
