LogMeIn Hamachi is a free VPN creator. Hamachi is normally used for playing (multiplayer) games like minecraft. You can install Hamachi on Ubuntu normally but the problem is that you have to use the terminal to work with Hamachi  (i.e there is no GUI). This problem can be tackled with the help of Haguichi. Haguichi gives Hamachi a user interface on Ubuntu. So here is how you install Hamachi with GUI on Ubuntu.
