Create a hamachi like NAT based VPN tool

  • 772

Is there a tool like Hamachi (https://secure.logmein.com/US/products/hamachi2) which works on ubuntu? Bonus points if it can be paired with something running on windows/mac.

  1. OpenVPN is the server and client side program that does the communication, and there are a number of GUI tools for configuring OpenVPN to do pretty much everything that Hamachi2 does:

    Here's a good list:

    cclint@ubuntu:~$ apt-cache search openvpn configuration
collectd-core - statistics collection and monitoring daemon (core system)
gadmin-openvpn-client - GTK+ configuration tool for openvpn (client)
gadmin-openvpn-client-dbg - GTK+ configuration tool for openvpn (debug for client)
gadmin-openvpn-server - GTK+ configuration tool for openvpn (server)
gadmin-openvpn-server-dbg - GTK+ configuration tool for openvpn (debug for server)
openvpn-auth-ldap - OpenVPN LDAP authentication module
tunneldigger - Configures OpenVPN tunnel networks

    I don't use any of them, but they all should be safe to try out for sure.
