1 Enhancements
1.1Hamachi log file improvement
The Hamachi crash log file now contains the version information of the Mac client.

1.2Client improvements
On the Hamachi client, .local has been added to the ping [client ID] and copy [client ID] context menu options of Hamachi peers. For example, ping 123-456-789 has been changed to ping 123-456-789.local in the context menu. This change has no effect on functionality.

1.3Hamachi interface on Windows

In IPv6-only mode, the Network Location Awareness service on Windows clients did not qualify the Hamachi interface as a public interface. As a result, it is now possible to set up Hamachi as a Work or Home network which is less restrictive than public networks. This, in turn, causes less issues with firewall settings.

2 Fixes
2.1Command line clients trim address
The command line version of the Hamachi client trimmed the IP address of peers. This error effected Mac and Linux clients.

2.2Notification window on Mac clients

It was not possible to click links in the notification window on Mac clients.

2.3Notification window on Windows clients

It was not possible to move the notification window on Windows clients.

2.4Menu bar icon missing in offline mode

The envelope icon on the menu bar was not visible on Mac clients when there was a message for the client but the client was offline.

2.5Gateway did not check OS type on Windows

The Hamachi client did not send information about the type of operating system that the client was running. The client only communicated whether it was running a 32 or 64-bit OS. As a result, this information was not displayed on the Networks > My Networks page of the LogMeIn website.

2.6Cannot connect to engine error

In some cases, due to a communication error between the Hamachi GUI and the Hamachi engine, the client failed to start and displayed a Cannot connect to engine message. This issue effected Windows and Mac clients.

2.7Masked password field

When you create a network on the Hamachi client, it was possible to see the entered characters in the password field. As of this release, the content of the password field is masked. This issue effected Windows and Mac clients.
