Hamachi help Please.

Hi,

I recently was advised by an expert to at least use hamachi for a VPN service. I want to try and secure my network mainly for terminal services. I can understand this to a certain extent.

I have created a network on my end and created a network on another Pc. I have joined them and they are seeing each other ok.

I dont really understand this in the sence of a VPN. If i have hamachi running on one Pc and Hamachi running on another Pc - Does this mean that the only communication that can be established is between these two Pc's and if PC 3 tried to for instance terminal server in it wont let it through? Just not quite sure  how this works once i have set up the networks.

thank you

Hi,

I will most likely test this over the weekend anyway.

Would you in your opnion think that i just install it on each server or would you need to include an install on every single PC i include.

Thank you
You'd need to install it on any device you want to connect to or from.  However I believe if you buy the payed for version you can configure it to connect a whole network -- i.e. if you install it on your one server then you can get to your other devices.

Surprised you haven't had any other feedback on this one... will see if I can find anyone else to advise more that knows about it.
