Hi,

Just FYI....Hamachi is a personal vpn software. www.hamachi.cc . Pretty useful. Allows you to access your remote system over the internet as if it were on your own LAN. People use it for all sorts of things, like securely accessing stuff from home/office if you're on a public Wifi. Or playing LAN games over the internet (as compared to playing internet games..cos some games allow LAN gaming, but you're not on the same LAN, hamachi allows you to play those games over the net).

For some, they would use VNC over Hamachi (when on public wifi), which provides the security. And some rdesktop over hamachi. Which is why I thought SSH over Hamachi should be possible.....

hm cool, but what would the point of ssh through hamachi be? ssh is already pretty secure.. Generally what I do is create a ssh tunnel if i need to worry about somebody catching my datas, or a proxy or something. then the traffic over the net is encrypted and such.

Anyway hope that quick howto helps

Does Hamachi have a maemo port? I didn't see mention of it on their page.

Please see my instructions in another thread for getting MicroB to work with an SSH proxy/tunnel. This will work as the OP requested, to get around site-blocking software or to act like hamachi.

In that thread, I also give a (quite geek-hacker) way to get other programs (like vncviewer) running through your SSH SOCKS proxy, using tsocks.
