Hi.
Since you got the native linux version, you don't
need to use "wine". Try this:
cd ~/Downloads/utorrent-server-v3_0
Then do:
./utserver
And utorrent will start.

I think you got the wrong utorrent
version. "utorrent server" is the "non-graphical"
version and it is supposed to be like that.
If you were planning to use the windows version of utorrent,
get the windows version from here:
http://www.utorrent.com/downloads/complete?os=win
Then you can right-click the .exe and "run with wine launcher".

Yes, but if you want the graphical version(not the command line
version), try following my instructions above.

Yeah..i prefer graphical version,i just wanted to know how the Linux version works that's it.

That's the Linux GUI version. Just install it. ;)
Wine is nigh on impossible to get rid of completely if you ever want to uninstall that, incidentally.

No, it's just the daemon that runs in the backgrond(no GUI).
You can still use the webui to connect to the daemon remotely.
Have a look here:
http://www.utorrent.com/help/faq
"Linux users can run µTorrent Server, a command-line version of our client. A GUI version is coming later this year."
Little more info about the linux port of utorrent server:

cd utorrent-server-v3_0
Change permissions:
chmod +x utserver

or just click on the file named utserver.
