    For those interested:

    I was able to install and run hamachi just fine via Windows XP pro under parallels. Connected to my (three) networks, able to peruse shares, etc.

    Unless and until a GUI-based version comes out for Mac, I think I actually prefer using my WinXP VM to having to 'sudo tuncfg' and then start, login, etc. etc. via the command line.

    Yeah I realized that, but it's awkward and doesn't work on a lot of my non-Tiger machines. I still prefer command line until an official GUI comes out.

    Or the Win version in Parallels.

    Follow up and FYI -- Hamachi via XP is still working great.

    However, if you need to install Hamachi via OS X as well, you will need the Universal version of the tun/tap driver. I thought there might be a problem with the Parallels TCP/IP driver and then found out that I had the wrong tun/tap driver.
