Hamachi Question (LAN over internet)

Xantan0 · #1 07-16-2006, 01:35 PM

So back in warcraft days i used hamachi to play on the LAN with people that werent actually on my lan, like they were in a different country even and with hamachi it made us on the LAN or something.
I wanted to be able to host a windows server for lan play (which i have done successfuly) and wanted to know if it would work LAN over the internet style, Hamachi.

If anyone is interested in doing this idea, and joining my server perhaps if it works,
download hamachi at hamachi.cc
get the newer version, press the on button, and join the server with user/pass or whatever EQEMU/EQEMU.
If anyone has any info about this let me know, im just wondering how to setup the minilogin for them, probably just 127.0.0.1 since they are really not on the lan so it will not interfear, anyways, let me know what you all think.

i did search the forums and did see that you can use hamachi on a minilog server.
i would like to use it 2 .
i think this would be great so you stil can have a small public server only with own login .

i only don't know how to make it work .. :(
some one can give a explonation plz??

thanks and much Respect!

I'm not going to tell you how to setup a server.. there is way too much documentation on this forum that will do that for you. I will say, start with Cavedudes Emulator Package and make it work on your LOCAL LAN. Once you have that working.. ALL you have to do, is change your LOCAL LAN ip addresses for the Hamachi Addresses. You don't even have to open ports on your router to make Hamachi work. It's an encrypted VPN tunnel. Works GREAT with MiniLogin. Remember to change the IP addresses in the database to the Hamachi ip addresses as well.
