Additional Comments
Something stoped working in the last versions of wine. I read people have problems in the past with online playing, probably is the same bug as the bug o directconnect from age of empires 2, just by now you have to install directconnect from winetricks but by now it doesn't launch in the last version of wine I tested.

Multiplayer
To get multiplayer working you have to use by now (wine 1.5.27) the directplay libraries from microsoft, still (since 2006) no open source libraries for direct play that include libraries to open sockets and close to play games, so install winetricks:
(in ubuntu/debian) sudo apt-get install winetricks
and then exec:
winetricks directplay
It will download the directplay libraries from microsoft and install them, that's all, tcp/ip will work with direct connect.
