+LogMeIn Hamachi2 is a hosted VPN service that securely connects devices and
+networks, extending LAN-like network connectivity to mobile users,
+distributed teams and business applications. You can easily create secure
+virtual networks on demand, across public and private networks.
+
+Linux beta binary blob from https://secure.logmein.com/US/labs/
+
+This requires the "tun" driver to be built into the kernel or available as
+a module- not a problem for Slackware (indeed, most) kernels.
+
+Provided is a sample rc.d script, /etc/rc.d/rc.d/rc.hamachi, to start the
+Hamachi2 daemon. To run it on boot, make it executable with
+
+    chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.hamachi
+
+and add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+
+    if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.hamachi ]; then
+      . /etc/rc.d/rc.hamachi start
+    fi
+
+Hamachi2 writes its configuration information to /var/lib/logmein-hamachi.
+To modify the server configuration, add your parameters to
+/var/lib/logmein-hamachi/h2-engine-override.cfg and restart the daemon with
+/etc/rc.d/rc.hamachi restart. Parameters you can change (in fact, the
+daemon's current configuration) are listed in h2-engine.cfg in this
+directory.
+
+Example /var/lib/logmein-hamachi/h2-engine-override.cfg:
+
+    Conn.DisableUpnp    1
+    Ipc.User        vike
+    Sock.TcpAddr    192.168.1.33
+    Sock.TcpPort    51232
+    Sock.UdpAddr    192.168.1.33
+    Sock.UdpPort    51232
+
+This config allows the user vike to use the hamachi command for controlling
+the vpn. It also disables UPnP for negotiation of the hamachi listen socket
+and forces it to the address and port listed. This is useful when you are
+willing to do a port forward yourself, because UPnP can be unreliable.
+
+For more information run the hamachi command without parameters and see
+/usr/doc/hamachi-<version>/README.
