How to make Wine use the network interface ham0 instead eth0

Post by Johnyz »

Hello, i was running Hamachi and World of Warcraft server. Now i installed Linux Ubuntu and linux-version of Hamachi on it. Then i installed the World of Warcraft under Wine. When i want to connect (realmlist is set to the hamachi IP of the server PC) its just stuck on /Connecting/. After a long research i found this: Wine uses eth0 network interface and Hamachi is ham0 network interface so the question is: How to make Wine use the network interface ham0 instead eth0? The search on this forum/wiki didn't return ANY results about hamachi or ham0 and Google returned just unsolved questions on various forums. So does anyone knows the solution?

If 'hostname -i' returns IP address of the eth0 interface then you need to edit /etc/hosts. And associate ip address of the ham0 with your hostname.
