The dedicated server uses a config file and is completely invisible; the dedicated server doesn't try to open any windows and simply runs in the background. When I try to run it, Wine gives an error stating that the application tried to create a Window and tells me to make sure my X server is running and that $DISPLAY is correct.

Wine needs X11 running in order to start.  No X11, no Wine processes.

Are you trying to run a text based program?  You might be better off
with other products.
