Accesing a windows share from Wine

[Sterpu Victor]

No, I didn't try $ip but I will do this, I think this is the problem.
Hosts contains the server IP but when I tried to mount the samba drive 
on linux it failed until I wrote the IP.
I'll try tomorow, I need to reinstall the app for this and I don't have 
the new installation serial now.

Thann you.
