Post by Joakim Christiansen »

I haven't testet it yet, but it let you have a LAN over internet.
Wich let you share files and play lan games over internet! (if I understood correctly)
Download it here: http://www.hamachi.cc/
This could be quite handy!

Wow, what a find. Thank man!

[edit]

Works perfectly fine with Ubuntu Linux, no extra configuration needed. I wonder how stable it is...

I tested this today and I find this is a good tool.

Really nice you have shared the information.

That's few months old news. I didn't know that you serious programmers are interested in such programm. :oops:
Anybody have free time to try arrange some gaming events ?
I play Warcraft 3 TFT and Worms world party but I would also like to try Atomic Bomberman and Mad Cars v1.06 on Hamachi.

I plan to go out of town tonight and "Hamachi" back into my home network. Can't wait to VNC to my daughters PC to freak her out. :)

BTW: I banged out a Linux client for Hamachi - PB style. Big thanks to Freak for helping me with a redirect ditty that made it so much easier to pull it off. I started reading the forum there and it did not look like they had a GUI planed.

Here is a screenie:

@Beach - Are you just teasing us or is there a chance you will make your Linux client available to the PB community? Bet the Hamachi community would also like it.

Sorry :oops: I forgot to say I posted it on their forum. It looks like they are digging it too. One of the Hamachi developers chimed in with a thumbs up. Here is the post:

@Joakim : thanks again for this tip to hamachi, it has changed my life! Literally.

@Beach. There is a bug or something in the client application. Everytime it closes down it leaves a process running. It looks like a process forked from the hamachi client itself, because the "hamachi-client" process does shut down. The process I am speaking about usually has a number name like 3 or 6 and will be at the top of your System Monitor process list. If you open and close the client three times, you will see three hanging processes out there, each consuming about 2.6mb of mem (on my Ubuntu box).

Anyway, please advise. Also, would you rather I move this to the hamachi forums?

Sorry for the delay in responding... Yes, there was a serious bug that I *think* is fixed. I have been testing the update and it seems stable for me. I updated the gui just now on the Hamachi forum. Please take a look at it and let me know if you still have trouble.

BTW: I also notice the "3" in my process list, but now it goes away when I exit the GUI. Can you check this as well?

Thanks man!

Thanks Beach. I'll download and check it today.

Also, have you figured out how to run a PureBasic app as SU? I mean prompt for the SUDO password like when you start Synaptic and then continue to run the app as SU?
