Hamachi for Stora

Original forum post here

Preparation

You need:

• Easy Root Access
• You may need to Modify Stora Firewall
• Download and unpack the Arm Hamachi Package

Connect to your Stora through ssh and upload unpacked hamachi archive to /tmp Follow the readme and install it (sudo ./install in hamachi install dir)

Installation

Move your hamachi archive into the stora, and navigate to the file using SSH

The following commands move the file to the /tmp archive and then unzips it, then installs it.

mv ARCHIVE_NAME /tmp
cd /tmp
tar -xvf ARCHIVE_NAME
cd /tmp/UNPACKED_NAME
sudo ./install

Setup

Run tuncfg:

 sudo PATH=/sbin:$PATH tuncfg

Create libcrypto library symlink:

 sudo ln -s /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8b /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7

Then run

hamachi-init
hamachi start
hamachi login

If you got "Login failed" message - there could be 2 reasons: disable firewall on Stora - Modify Stora Firewall or tuncfg cannot reach ifconfg properly (/sbin PATH variables). You should enable hamachi log by running:

echo "LogFile ~/.hamachi/log" >> ~/.hamachi/config
echo "DebugLog yes" >> ~/.hamachi/config
hamachi stop; hamachi start

Optional set nickname by

 hamachi set-nick YOUR_NICK

Connect to your existing hamachi network - if you don't have a network, see below

hamachi join YOUR_NETWORK

and go online

hamachi go-online YOUR_NETWORK

If you don't have a network to connect to, you can create one

hamachi create NETWORK_NAME PASSWORD

e.g.

hamachi create example_network password

thats all, now your Stora appears in all your computer worldwide with logmein hamachi2 installed like at home.

If you have "zombie" (reconencting) issues in official Logmein Hamachi2 Client, add to ~/.hamachi/config (on Stora - create if not exist) following:

KeepAlive 10

Getting Hamachi to Start on Startup

Based on ubuntuforums wyth's post: here Create the start-up script for hamachi, as shown below.

vi hamachi

Change the user name "your name" (line 5) to your user name. Call the script "hamachi."

#!/bin/bash
#chkconfig: 235 90 90
#description: hamachi init script
###################################
### Start-up script for Hamachi ###
###################################
USER=YOUR NAME
case "$1" in
start)
/sbin/tuncfg
/bin/su - $USER -c "hamachi start"
;;
stop)
/bin/su - $USER -c "hamachi stop"
;;
restart|force-reload)
/bin/su - $USER -c "hamachi start"
/bin/su - $USER -c "hamachi stop"
;;
*)
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0

Make the script executable:

chmod +x hamachi

Move the script to /etc/init.d/ directory:

sudo mv hamachi /etc/init.d

finally, add hamachi service

sudo chkconfig --add hamachi

voila... you should test it by running

sudo reboot
