the hamachi script located in /etc/init.d/hamachi uses the start-stop-daemon with the following command (to start) start-stop-daemon --quiet --start -c ${USER}\ --exec /usr/bin/hamachi -- \ -c $CONFDIR start &>${LOG} & result=$? the issue is that start-stop-daemon uses the -c flag for its specify user, and hamachi uses -c for its change config path. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. /etc/init.d/hamachi init 2. /etc/init.d/hamachi start Actual Results: if run without --quiet and without &>${LOG} hamachi does not seem to be running - have you tried hamachi start? Expected Results: started hamachi correctly

Whatever the problem was, this bug doesn't seem to be applicable anymore and should probably be closed.
