Um, it's directly under your nose ;-) The hamachi driver has been updated
and included in 2.2.16. Don't try to build it into the kernel though. I
was the last one to work on that code and I never tried that ;-) The
current incarnation should work better than the previous version, though I
make no guarantee that it still works under the 2.0 series. I haven't had
time to port to 2.4 either...
