NET SEND command

[gman10]

Hey everyone-

Can someone give me a good example on how to use the NET SEND command to send a message to a user. I need an actual example.. when I type net send /?... I get the syntax of how to use it but it's a little ambiguous..

thanx

gman

If your username was gman10 and I wanted to send you a mesage to say hello, I would type...

net send gman10 Hello!

The Messenger service must be running on the system sending the message and the system receiving it. If you are on Win9x, you will need WinPopup.

Or you can download any easy to use GUI interface for the net send command such as NetSend Window Communicator..........

You can also send to specific computer, ie,

net send pc00466 Hi its me

if pc00466 is the computer name, as above messenger service must be started on both computers Regards
