Have a look at the net send command. At a dos prompt:
NET SEND {name | * | /DOMAIN[:name] | /USERS} message
It may be disabled in your lab, but worth a try.
Be careful, use it the wrong way, and you could get yourself in a wee bit of trouble.

Depends on your Operating System, I would have thought, and the way you are all connected?
For example if this machine were attached to an IBM midrange net, and I was running in 5256 emulation mode I would just give it "sndbrkmsg" then run like hell before the Admins caught me using the other guy's machine :D
Cheers
nah thats not how they do it...i think they use the run command but im not sure
lol you tpe that in DOS or what?
and what does it do?
using Windows the command should be net send Ip address msg
heres an example
net send 192.168.1.100 Wassssuppp!
so you must know the persons IP address.
You can type that in the run command or at the command. prompt.
It will send a message (if not disabled).Quote:
NET SEND * message
Will send a message to everyone logged on (to that domain I think), like I said use with caution, this is a great way to piss off an admin.
Cheers:
hehe....does it show who sent it?
I haven't used it in ages, so don't quote me on this, but I don't think it shows who sent it. You might want to get a few more answers on this question before you try it.Quote:
Cheers:
yes
it will say something like message from Computer Name to your IP address or computer name on 12/15 1:30
Without details of your operating system it is impossible to tell how they do it. If it is the "run" command then it is probably Windows of some sort.
Remember that the Admins have their own tools apart from those packaged with the operating system.
Remember that if you use DOS or "command" you are totally visible as the sender :)
What are you hoping to do? If you are interested for purely academic reasons....why not ask the Admins?
Biggest laugh I ever had was using the "utilities" to send fake system error messages to the Group Financial Accountant..........just at year end reporting time :D
Our Finance Director spoiled it by bursting out laughing, so the guy knew he was being "had"......just goes to show how unreliable bosses can be?
Cheers
It also will log it in your Event log in 2k.
