ipv4 adress changed

[Conrad van Onselen]

The 25.0.0.0 ipv4 address displayed by hamachi list does not correspond to the ipv4 one displayed in haguichi this is in 1.0.18 and logmein-hamachi_2.1.0.80-1_amd64 if you right click and ping the address changes every 15 seconds and it slows down haguici extremely running ubuntu 12.04

[Stephen Brandt (ztefn)]

As I wrote in the release notes [1], the "hamachi list" command cuts off many addresses since LogMeIn started using the new address space. Haguichi works around this issue by calling "hamachi peer" for every online member, which does output the complete addresses. This way Haguichi actually displays and uses the correct address. As a paying customer, maybe you can urge LogMeIn to fix the Linux client, to me they don't respond [2].

From one of your previous bug reports I know you have a rather large network list. Having Haguichi doing a "hamachi peer" command for every online member each update cycle (15 seconds by default, but you can change that in Preferences) might be a heavy toll on hamachi and slow it down, I'm not sure. It's certainly not a problem for Haguichi because the requests are all threaded.

The only way a member's address could change is when it's status changes, because the workaround doesn't work for offline members. Ping is an external process in the terminal, it shouldn't have any impact other than some additional network traffic.

Hi Conrad,

Have you contacted LogMeIn support yet?

Meanwhile I have made some code changes to dramatically reduce the number of "hamachi peer" requests [1]. First, I noticed duplicate requests triggered by temporary member instances used for syncing. Secondly, I introduced a condition so that complete addresses are only retrieved when they have not been retrieved yet or when addresses have been changed.

These code changes cuts "hamachi peer" requests on startup by half and reduces the requests on updates to nearly nil. I have created a debian package for Ubuntu 11.10 or newer [2] that contains these changes. Please install this version and let me know how it runs.

I must say, you are not very communicative lately. This thread is becoming a monologue...

Anyway, it appears that today LogMeIn released a new version (2.1.0.84) that fixed the trimmed addresses [1]. I haven't tested this version yet, but if everything is ok I will try to completely eliminate the workaround for this version onwards.
