I've been using Hamachi for some time now (years), and find it a really good tool for keeping in touch with all the computers we have strewn around the country now.

I've just set up Hamachi on a new laptop, and after being prompted for a Master Password, thought I'd check up on the passwords on the computers at home here.

Well, in a fit of insanity some time ago I've set the master password on not one, not two, but three of the computers, and have no idea what I set it to :crying: It's not anything that I would normally have used, and I have no idea why I made them different :groan:

It's really only for my peace of mind, as I regularly back up each machine, and the Hamachi config is part of that, so if the worst happened, I'd be able to reconstruct my VPN. Even so ... it annoys me that I can't reset the Master Password! Does anyone have any ideas? (Other than simply deleting the config files and starting again ... )

Just as an aside, you aren't using hamachi in any sort of business capacity are you?

Nope, I use TightVNC to remotely connect to the kids' laptops and my parents' computer to look after them -- Hamachi makes it a heck of a lot easier to do that :D

790237 2009-07-10 03:09:00 Yes, Teamviewer does offer a VPN option which may make it quite a bit easier. Blam (54)
