Hamachi for Debian / Ubuntu

By rzelazko  //  Hamachi, Linux, My *.deb  //  9 Comments

Hamachi is very easy, closed source hosted VPN service. It securely connects devices and networks, extending LAN-like network. It is absolutely free for non-commercial use. I have created deb package for easy install this interesting VPN clinet.

Install
To install hamachi on debian or ubuntu follow steps:

sudo su
aptitude install build-essential
wget -c http://rafal.zelazko.info/wp-content/uploads/old/hamachi_0.9.9.9.20.deb
dpkg -i hamachi_0.9.9.9.20.deb
rm hamachi_0.9.9.9.20.deb

Whats next?
If you have hamachi installed you can:

  • Join to network
    sudo hamachi -c /etc/hamachi join your-network your-password
  • Create your own network
    sudo hamachi -c /etc/hamachi create your-network your-password
  • Log in to hamachi
    sudo hamachi -c /etc/hamachi login
  • Go online
    sudo hamachi -c /etc/hamachi go-online your-network
  • List users in your networks:
    sudo invoke-rc.d hamachi status

    (you can enter this command twice to view nicknames)

    Do you have an amd64 architecture .deb? The one provided is i386, which won’t install on my amd64 Debian system.

    No I don’t use Hamachi currently. I switched to OpenVPN

    I get a strange error when I do the dpkg, it says that it’s not a debian archive but it is??
