Net send ?

net send will do that, assuming you know the IP.

Ah great after all that my bpss ahs jsut said that it isnt feasable and is too much of an invasion of privacy.

Its for administrator use only, can u imagine all the students having it, i dont think so. Plus for this sort of program is has to be put on the hard drive so the program would need to be installed every time the computers are reset which is crap and a waste of time.

well when the machines start up they must have a command from the server, why not put the program somewhere shared and adjust the startup file to automatically install it

What about WinPopup?

They are all " Deep frozen " so would take ages.

That's why you should have remote installations/images.

Then thats useless, i aint gonna go round 300 computers and install it.

i found this program it needs to be installed on all machines but its a free program m8, http://download.com.com/3000-2085-4794639.html then u can choose where u send it :thumbs:

With net send you should be able to target blocks of IPs

Netware used to just be "send[username] [message]".

Not sure what it is now if it's still there.

i know windows 3.11 had a built in one as its windows for networks cant thinkn what its called tho m8, ill have a look n put it on here when i find out

All i want to to do is send a message to an IP address on the network.

try this link -

must be the novell then as it works on 2000 & XP

win2000 m8 on novell it wont work

& make sure you put the login name, otherwise it goes to EVERY computer on the network!!!

dunno if it works the same

but on NT, u can just do a net send

just goto Start -> Run and type the following

net send <userloginname> then your message

ie

net send cgamble go take you face for a shite

this would display a popup on cgambles pc saying go take your face for a shite

also, it gives the sender as the pc name sent from

dunno if it works on netware but try it, just send one to yourself & see if it works

znet for what searching

post one up here when you find it, could have some fun with that around college!

i forgot what prog i used to use, but try zdnet, there are loads of similar things on there. HTH

Please help me

Ello fellow I.T peeps, i wanna messaging program that seeks ou I.P addreses on the network so that i can send messages.
