Lately, a few of my friends have been talking about this program called Hamachi. If you don't know, it basically allows you to start a network with a bunch of your friends. It basically is like having all your friends on your LAN.
You can share files, play games, etc. as if they were there! You can also play games with them LAN style instead of over the Internet. It's pretty cool! Check out the hamachi website at http://www.hamachi.cc [N]F |

hi guys, i have been using Hamachi for one year.It is a perfect tool for play LAN games across internet.For examples,you can play dotA with 9 other friends at your network in Hamachi via online/internet without using cable LAN.Another features that make it a great networking client is PM function.You can chat with other members without worrying security issues.Its just like MSN messenger .

Hamachi errors
Hamachi I can't get Hamachi to work with my games. Any help would be appreciated. I've been reading up on it, and some people say that I need to forward my ports. Is there a way to get this working otherwise? THEMASTER Cs-simpson a hotmail.Com -THEMASTER |

Hamachi is the best "LAN over the internet" software i know. Very good
 I used to play diablo 2, and Call of Duty 2 with my friends. And it is very simple to use

Ah, Hamachi. Reminds me of something that happened many months ago. I used to visit MMORPG private servers, however since stopped due to their illegality. Anyways, I'll go on. The particular MMORPG was very popular for private servers, complete idiots even ran them! All it took was downloading a program and running said program after editing a little HTML. People apparently didn't know how to portforward and make their private server publically accessable, so they turned to hamachi to make it easier. In that way, by allowing complete strangers access to their network, they compromised security. My last main use of hamachi was several months ago. I had an old 1997 game that I wanted to play with a friend on the internet. It didn't have an online play option, so we used hamachi to make it work.
It's a pretty good piece of software, and far easier than setting up a VPN. |
