That really looks the part ... seems that even the free version would do for me. But didnt quite understand that last part

Run as a Windows System Service - Yes An option to run the Hamachi client as a system service. This is typically needed when running Hamachi on servers or in setups involving Windows domain authentication.

Maybe I have understood the VPN wrong. I thought you only need VPN on routers at both sides and everything beyond the routers would be accessible both sides.

Do I need to install this program to every computer on my network?

Network looks a bit like this

Home
comp1 - comp2

Work
comp1 - comp2 - server - printer

How would I go about installing the VPN? Home side router has VPN already ... do I still use that?
