Hamachi 0.10 driver

By the way, I attempted to use the 0.10 driver for an SMP box running
Redhat 5.2 and kernel 2.2.1 with no luck.  No error messages were
printed.  The card seemed to initialize fine but when it went to send a
DHCP request, nothing was returned.  I haven't debugged this enough to
know if the request was actually received at the DHCP server (thus
meaning the card was actually sending network packets).
