net send command 1

[meloadri]

I am trying to send a network message from my domain- liquidpac to a pc name frontoffice5-AS in the same domain but the syntaxes I am using are not working. Can you help?

net send depends on the Messenger service (unrelated to MSN messenger or Live messenger, just happens to have a similar name) being active in both the sender and the recipient machines. Make sure it is active on both. Its normally disabled by default for security reasons.


A typical net send syntax is as follows:

net send [computername] [message]

Example:

net send frontdeskPC "Hello Front Desk PC"

Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.

Oh, on BOTH machines! I didn't know that (and this isn't even my thread!)

Assuming you have adminstrator rights:

1. Right click on MY COMPUTER, choose Manage,

2. Action, Connect to another computer, input the remote PC name, ok,

3. click on Services and Applications, Services, locate Messenger, right click, choose Properties, Change start up to Automatic, click on Start.

Exit Computer Management to disconnect from the remote PC.

Do the same thing again on your own PC, just skip step 2.
