wine in ubuntu 16.04 don't leave to internet

Post by ponsdaniel »

Hello everyone

Some time ago I detected a somewhat curious circumstance on my computer with Ubuntu 16.04. A number of programs I get that work with Wine, but do not have access to the office network. I have detected that if I execute them as root they access. These programs work perfectly on ubuntu, but if they do not access the network, they can not be used. They are not game programs, they are of professional scope. My query is, what should I do so that normally a program that installs with Wine has access to the network?

If your user has internet access, your Wine apps should too. However, if you've been running Wine as root, that would have messed up the permissions in the wineprefix. Follow these instructions for fixing them: https://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#I_ran_wine_ ... _errors.3F.
