I read Bill Chubb's comments about using VNC
more securely.

I have a free copy of Hamachi. It works fine
except that it works only if someone logs into
the host computer. In other word my version does not run as a SERVICE.
If you have to remotely maintain an unattended
computer this becomes a problem.
the IP address does not go into effect till Hamachi is running.
The same kind of problem can occur while using
PCAnywhere. Yesterday I connected to a PCANYWHERE
host which was also running VNC host and NO-IP!
(would like to know more how to set this up)
I hope that this information might be useful to someone.
