woody:

after you “sudo ./install” hamachi it says:

Copying hamachi into /usr/bin ..
Creating hamachi-init symlink ..
Copying tuncfg into /usr/sbin ..

Hamachi is installed. See README for what to do next.

You should then type:

cd /usr/bin (then press enter)
sudo ./hamachi-init -f (then press enter)

thats what fixed it for me, it just needed the extra sudo command on the last line… it should prompt for your password and then it’ll save the client.pub without any problems… hope this helps

jojo: Type in “hamachi login”, then type in “hamachi create [server name]“, then it should work.

Halvard: When it asks you to type in the password it does allow you to insert it, however it doesn’t show you as typing it, I’m not sure of the reason, must be for security, but you are indeed typing, just type it and press enter, it should work.

Hi, I had the same problem when I was messing around with the HamachiX, in the Help -> install/uninstall support. On top of HamachiX not working at all I was able to hamachi login from terminal.

I assume you have already installed TunTap.

I fixed it by reinstalling the Hamachi:

1. sudo -s (#provide your admin password when asked)
2. cd /usr/bin
3. rm hamachi
4. rm hamachi-init
5. cd /
6. ./install

Copying hamachi into /usr/bin ..
Creating hamachi-init symlink ..
Compiling tuncfg ..
Copying tuncfg into /usr/sbin ..

Hamachi is installed. See README for what to do next.

7. cd /usr/bin
8. ./hamachi-init -f

generating 2048-bit RSA keypair .. ok
making /Users//.hamachi directory .. ok
saving /Users//.hamachi/client.pub .. ok
saving /Users//.hamachi/client.pri .. ok
saving /Users//.hamachi/state .. ok

Authentication information has been created. Hamachi can now be started with
‘hamachi start’ command and then brought online with ‘hamachi login’.

9. hamachi start
10. hamachi login

that should do.
