Connecting to a Minecraft Server that is used for Hamachi networking but is local to me?

If I create and install the Minecraft Server Jar on an older desktop computer, that will act as a "dedicated" Server PC, and port the Server to be used by my friends via the Hamachi VPN, would I still be able to connect to said Server, that is located on my local network, even though the Hamachi VPN IP Address is being used in the Server Config File?

Long Story Short

What I want to know is, if I have a Server running on a seperate computer on my local network, but has been configured to be used on Hamachi networking, would I still be able to access the Server from another computer on the same local network, but not on the Hamachi VPN?

This done assuming we are on Windows, yet configuration should be the same as other platforms

So you want to connect to a server on your local network, but - understandably - you don't want to connect from your PC, through VPN encryption, to your modem, to Hamachi, back to your modem, again with encryption, to your PC/Server, back and forth.

As far as I know most guides advise you to type the IP address Hamachi gives you as the server-ip= parameter in the server.properties file which is located in your server folder. That IP Address should not be in the 192.168.1.x address range. Now, what you need to do is replace this IP with 0.0.0.0

Why this works

Essentially what this does is tell the Minecraft server to run on all IP Addresses (ie. all networks and adapters) that are available to your PC, effectively extending your server availability beyond the mere VPN of Hamachi.

On the client PC (the one used to play) you will type in the IP Address of the server on the local network (you can find it with ifconfig) and on your friends' PCs as you already know you will use Hamachi and the IP it provides.

Also, port forwarding doesn't bite. It's a much more flexible, powerful, efficient and easy (from the client side) way to host a Minecraft Server. It also deals with the atrocious lag caused by Hamachi. Give it a try!
