 Whether you’re at work and forgot
some file on your home computer,
want to play some music on a train, or
just want to move some files between
your computers, accessing your files
from anywhere is a life saver.

4. Introduction
 Hamachi is a VPN client. It creates a Virtual Private
Network over a public network like the Internet.
When this client runs, it implements a virtual
network adapter, and you’re given an additional IP
address that identifies you on any virtual network
you join. You then create a virtual network by
name, assigning it a password. Now anyone
running the Hamachi client can join your network
by connecting to it by name, and supplying the
password.

5. Get Started (1st Step)
 We’ll start by downloading LogMeIn Hamachi from the link at
the end of the article. Get it installed then fire it up. Once you
start it, it will tell you to click the Power On button so press it.

6. 2nd Step
 When the dialog pops-up enter a
name for this computer then click
create.

7. 3rd Step
 Now Hamachi is up and running but we
need a network to connect all the
computers. Click on Create a new network
to create one.

8. 4th Step
 When this window pops-up enter the
Network ID and a password

9. 5th Step
 After entering the Network ID (name) and the password click
create and the network will be created immediately. The
network is created but there is only one computer in the
network. To get other computers in the same network you’ll
have to install Hamachi on them and set it up just like you did
on the first computer but instead of creating a new network,
click join an existing network and enter the network ID and
the password.

10. Final Step
 Congratulations! You have got your own network and can
access all the computers that are connected to it. Just right-
click the computer that you want to access and select
Browse. You will see the shared files just like you do with
computers on you LAN network.Let’s try it, right-click and
select Browse.

11. Result
 These are the files, folders and printers that are shared on the
target computer.

12. NOTE
 LogMeIn Hamachi is not a remote
control application so you don’t get
control of the computers, you just
access the network shares files.

13. Conclusion
 LogMeIn Hamachi has two great
features. First, all connection are
encrypted so you are safe. Second, it
is transparent, meaning all technical
stuff are done behind the scenes so
no IP address, Gateway Address or
DNS is required to be set. Awesome!
