Well, in general, all Wine services are actually provided by the
underlying *NIX OS, so if your windows app will be able to connect to
something, a native Linux app would too. Windows ftp, telnet, and http
use winsocks, which in turn uses *NIX sockets, so AFAICT these clients
behave very much like the native *NIX ones...
All I know to do to try to get my teeth into an unknown app is to run a
relay trace and try to see what Windows services it is trying to use
when it fails. Well, usually I use $relay to filter out some of the
more repetitive calls.
[whit at giftie whit]$ printenv |grep relay
relay=-relay=rtlentercriticalsection:RTLleavecriticalsection:rtldeletecriticalse
ction:initializecriticalsection:interlockedincrement:interlockeddecrement
[whit at giftie whit]$ tty
/dev/vc/5
[whit at giftie whit]$ cat /dev/vcc/5|fold|trail >oof
I haven't checked that to make sure they are all there and spelled
correctly, but maybe it will give you an idea.
Maybe somebody else knows the app and has a better idea.
