    Net Send Quiestion...

    For some reason i cant seem to get "net send" to work on my computer for my LAN at home. It will recieve messages from my other machines butcant seem to send them. All the other machines can send and recieve just fine but mine can only recieve. I would kind of like to be able to get it to work(for undisclosable resone...). If u have any suggestions at all please post them. Thanx in advance guys!

    do you have a firewall? is the service turned on/off- you can send messages via the service if the daemon is turned off, but wouldn't be able to recieve them?

    they are in UDP not TCP... just so y'know...
    yeah, I\'m gonna need that by friday...

    I believe its on by default, but to be sure go to run and type services.msc. From there scroll down to
    'messenger', that is where you would enable/disable that service.

    [edit] I believe those messages come to port 135 [/edit]

    The answer to your question is as follows
    Code:
    msg <username> <message here>
    it's like that on XP

    well, i'm not quite sure what could be wrong... but i know at my office we can not send UDP packets outside the building (because of the firewall)? other than that, i'm stumped

    A little program

    Have you ever tried the progam winpopup? I'm not sure if it'll work but you can give it a try.

    Re: A little program

    never having used that my-self... i would venture to guess that it is just a suped up version of net send... using the same protocol... but with some extra options...
