I did some initial testing with hamachi but there must be something I haven't understood there yet.. I'm scratching my head a bit at least.

I have hamachi installed on my desktop (linux box). tuncfg is running at all times (as root). I start hamachi from my user account, hamachi-init, hamachi start, hamachi login, hamachi create, hamachi join.

Then I installed it on my n800, set it up the same way, then hamachi-init, hamachi start, hamachi login, hamachi join.
I can see stuff with 'hamachi list', including the 5.x.x.x. IP of my desktop computer.

I try to ping one from the other, or ssh, or 'telnet 22', anything. I always get 'no route to host'. My desktop is on the internal network, my N800 on an external wi-fi (outside the firewall). I don't see immediately how it _can_ work, actually.. unless it's tunneling through an external hamachi corp. box, but from the docu my understand is that it's not supposed to.

Anyway, apparently it works for others, so what am I doing wrong?
