[cw-discuss] Does "[Network] / UseDnsComputerName" exist for cxoffice?

Hey all,

I have this accursed windows application that was installed (under
cxoffice) on a particular machine long ago, and now refuses to run
unless it's on a machine with the same hostname.

Searching around, I find references to the "UseDnsComputerName" variable
in the "[Network]" section of the wine config file, which will let me
define the ComputerName in the 'doze registry, and if
"UseDnsComupterName" is set to "No", Wine won't change the registry
value to the (unix) hostname of the host machine.

However, it appears that cxoffice ignores the wine.config file now, and
I can't figure out any other way to enable this setting.  This would
work great for me if I could specify it per-bottle, since this
application *is* in it's own bottle at least.

Can anyone help me figure this out?

Thanks!
