Send messages users SCO 6.0

[dellit]

Hi,
how I can send to messages to all the users connected on a Server SCO 6.0?
Thanks

Does SCO 6.0 have wall?

I want to be good, is that not enough?

I think you may have misunderstood. wall is a command, as described on Tony Lawrence' site:

Hope this helps and clarifies.

[PHV]

man wall

do the following
1. type in wall and the press Enter.
2. type in the message you want to prodcast and then press enter.
4. press Cntrl and D at the same time.

hope this helps

For completness:
man wall
man write
man mesg

One further proviso - the sender must be root to obviate any protections individual users might have assigned themselves.
