    How do you install hamachi on mac os x?

    I did this and it doesn't seem to work:

    Downloaded this:
    tuntap_leopard_20080607_src
    hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-osx

    Then double click on 'tap' and opened and 'tun' and opened.

    Then ran terminal and typed in the following:
    Type cd Desktop to change directory to your Desktop folder inside your Home folder. Do cd [hamachi], where [hamachi] is the folder that was made when you decompressed the downloaded file. In my case, the folder was titled hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-osx, so I did cd hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-osx.
    ype sudo ./install, followed by your administrator password. The admin password is required because Hamachi installs system-level components to make everything work.

    It then says to do this:
    After the quick install is done, type sudo tuncfg in the terminal

    but it says this when i do it:
    tuncfg: cannot stat() /dev/tap0 -- No such file or directory
    tuncfg: visit http://www.hamachi.cc/tuntap for more information
    misc-macbook:hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-osx Truong$

    Any ideas?

    I pretty much followed what was on this website:
    http://www.command-tab.com/2006/08/13/hamachi-on-mac-os-x/

    This is really frustrating as i am new to using mac os x and really do not know what to do.

    PLEASE HELP ME!
