I read your message, with the cryptic the forum subject "Re: tracker error 12169" ... Hmmm, is that a bug report tracker I wondered to myself? Well actually I thought - can I bothered reading that post...

Hint:
Post subject: utorrent 2.0.4 ssl/tls connection error
A clean, concise and informative forum subject.

  • Are you trying to run utorrent under Wine?
  • What's VNC got to do with it? Or are you just VNC'ing into a desktop to run Wine?
Wine 1.6.2 was released Fri Jan 10 21:37:29 2014 +0100 - it's obsolete and no longer supported...
See WineHQ Downloads: Ubuntu to get a supported version of Wine.

I'd say utorrent 2.0.4 doesn't support https because it's using depreciated and obsolete crypto libraries for SSL/TLS... (I.e. not really a Wine issue.)
Why in god's name would you want to open your system(s) to the vulnerabilities this causes?
