Hamachi Question

Hey,

I've noticed several different icons next to people's names/IP address in Hamachi.  A few of them I have figured out on my own (i.e. the gray star means offline the green star means online).  But there are some others I haven't figured out.  Can anyone tell me what gold star means?  A blue arrow (pointing down)?  Or a bright green star (the normal green start with a goldish border/background)?

Tschow,

I think the blue arrow means they're "away", and I'm pretty sure a gold star means a Hamachi Pro owner. I'm not absolutely positive though.

A blue arrow means limited connection.  The gold star means premium member.  You can get a free 30 day trial of premium, or at least you used to be able to.

To be technical, a blue arrow means a relay connection is used.  (I send data to Kirk who relays that data to Tsavong Lah, then back again.)

Hey,

Is there anyway to indicate being "away" in Hamachi?

yes, 2 ways actually

You can set a status message for Hamachi.  Set it by clicking the button on the bottom that looks like a paw.

Also, in the options menu, (prefs, presence) there is an option to automatically switch your status after a certain amount of time that your computer is inactive.  I use this and it works great. :)
