This solution worked for me:
I experienced Hamachi crash only when tried to join the existing network with the join request sending.
There is another way to join the existing network: Attach to LogMeIn account.
Then approve the join request from the MAC client, if your network was set up with the "Join Request" " Must be Approved" settings. Assign mac client to your network and Voila! Mac client is a real member of the network, not just a guest.
I have used Hub-and-Spoke configuration.
It worked for me. Hope it can help and you guys.
Good luck.
