TM2009 and DotNet are sold as separate products; the DotNet add-on uses the TM2009 client but stores the data files on a corporate server.
TM2009 is TM2008 v4.01b and above.

What works
Updated 07-24-2010: Everything still works fine for every wine version up to and including version 1.2. Still hangs on DotNet download, but killing and restarting TM gets around that issue.
Everything works that I've tried so far under Wine 1.1.*, except for the program locking up after downloading the data when using the DotNet addon. However, just kill the process and restart it. You will then get a prompt about using the files currently on the computer. Click 'Yes' and you're ready to go. You need update rights to the data for this.
What does not
Window loses focus after downloading data from server. Mouse and keyboard events are non-resposive, but window still refreshes. Kill process and restart. The data was downloaded.
Sometimes popup windows get hidden behind the dialog window that created them.
What was not tested
new AutoMailer feature to schedule emails from within TM. In Windows this is a background process in the system tray.
Additional Comments
When using TroopMaster under VirtualBox, I would rate it as Gold. Works just as it would on a regular Windows machine. (But then that's not Wine, is it?)
TroopMaster needs mfc42.dll. Use winetricks to get it. See http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks
After downloading the script,
% sh winetricks vcrun6
Warning
doesn't run under wine 1.1.22
HOWTO
1.) install latest version of wine
follow install instructions from wine download page
2.) install cabextract either through you package manager, or termnal http://www.cabextract.org.uk/
sudo apt-get install cabextract
3.) then get winetricks http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks
now depending on how you set up wine tricks you can type in termnal
sh winetricks
or
winetricks
4.) select mfc42 or vcrun6 and mfc40 in the gui (graphical user interface) that showes up
if you want to center the image when the program loads select ie6
5.) select next
now run your troopmaster installer .exe
follow troopmaster instructions as they popup
