[cod] COD5 Linux using wine and CLI - My progress so far (not yet working)

I'm getting around 70ms from Norway as well.

For anyone wanting to test my five CoD5-servers running in wine, they can be
found here:

gaming01.getlive.no:28951 through 28955

I'm getting ~17-20 ms from them (they are in Norway).

They are all running om the same physical server, no emulation is used.

Ubuntu server 8.10, wine 1.1.8.
