Also, have you tried out Mandrake 9.0 beta2 yet? Sure it's beta but it runs a hell of alot better than 8.2
BTW- I'm a Linux newbie, but I'm having fun learning it hehe

Nope I haven't tried running autokick under wine actually. I was curious about that myself. The reason I haven't tried it is because my server's only a P266MMX and being that slow it runs a lot faster without Xwindows grinding it down.
I wouldn't be surprised if it works just fine on a per session basis though. I've have some pretty good hits versus misses when using wine.
VMware is also an option.
As far as the partition and registry are concerned, I really can't see it making any difference. The info is all stored in a textfile. You might want to check however, that the FAT32 partition is mounted read/WRITE....that could be the problem too.
Another thought is double check you /etc/wine.conf or etc/wine/wine.conf
