I found out my hostname is different from my Linux's hostname. Whe I ran hostname command in wine cmd:
I:> hostname
LOCALHOST
I tried changing ComputerName and ActiveComputerName in regedit but unsuccessful. When I exit regedit, it went back to LOCALHOST
How to change it permanently?

Re: hostname issue
I solved it. The problem was in /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost mylaptop
I just removed localhost and reboot wine with wineboot. Then wine picked up mylaptop as the hostname.
If i ping localhost, it is still ok. Maybe it is built-in hostname for 127.0.0.1
I guess i should share the solution here.
