Hi there Fryeday,
Thanks so much for taking the time to post. I finally had time to try your suggestion and was able to verify using the od command that the end of line terminators are indeed in format /r /n (DOS per your info) at least in the eqclient.ini file. Do I need to test all of the files in my EQ folder?
As far as permissions, I previously did a 'sudo chmod -R 777 ./Everquest' to recursively open up the permissions for the whole folder as to remove any doubt on that front. I have my 'Everquest' folder in the following location: $home/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Sony/Everquest
I used chmod to recursive open up the permissions for everything in/including Everquest directory. Do I need to go further upstream (e.g. 'Sony' directory or would that be unnecessary?)
Based on some info in another thread here on the forum (see: P99 on Linux Mint 19.1 64bit) I may go ahead and start from scratch doing a clean linux install and installing 32bit wine. So that may obviate the need to troubleshoot this particular issue but still curious and I might try this solution before going down that other route.
Thanks again,
Ravana

No worries. What I was checking for is the correct file format so that the config and log files are read/writable by the application files. I will be contributing to the EQ on Linux aspects here on the forums and on the Wiki, but won't have time to start my lab testing until this weekend.
