    Hi,

    I have two identical virtual windows xp machines running on the same network (different macs) using Hamachi to network them.

    The process works fine when the virtual machines are NOT identical. But when running both (identical) virtual windows installations on two different macs Hamachi fails to network properly. I did rename one of the machines and obtained a new Hamachi account for one of the machines. What else must I do to get Hamachi to network properly with otherwise identical virtual machines on two different computers.

    I'm thinking I have to spoof one of the installations NIC MAC and Hamachi NIC MAC. Anything else necessary to get Hamachi to network properly between these two identical virtual machines ??

    Thanks.

    It is Windows nature,
    1. name of Windows machines
    2. Mac addresses
    should be different
