I tried this but the permissions are still set as drwxrwxr-x 21 root root
for the /mnt/c and all the dirs under it. And when I try to winword.exe from it's
directory I get the following.
bash: ./winword.exe: Permission denied

Couldn't find the /etc/wine/wine.conf so changed the one in ~/.wine/config

I found the following in the ~/.wine/config
[Drive F]
"Path" = "${HOME}"
"Type" = "network"
"Label" = "Home"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
Is this what you were talking about? Should this be changed to not be network
drive or is does it need to be a network drive?
