how use Vista to send a message in lan

hi lkiamd,

Im guessing your onabout the net send command to sent dialog messages to other users or machines.

net send is nolonger available in Vista, an alternative is msg, type msg into the command window for all the options.

C:\Users\Philly>msg
Send a message to a user.

MSG {username | sessionname | sessionid | @filename | *}
[/SERVER:servername] [/TIME:seconds] [/V] [/W] [message]

username Identifies the specified username.
sessionname The name of the session.
sessionid The ID of the session.
@filename Identifies a file containing a list of usernames,
sessionnames, and sessionids to send the message to.
* Send message to all sessions on specified server.
/SERVER:servername server to contact (default is current).
/TIME:seconds Time delay to wait for receiver to acknowledge msg.
/V Display information about actions being performed.
/W Wait for response from user, useful with /V.
message Message to send. If none specified, prompts for it
or reads from stdin.
Click to expand...

hope this helps,
Philly
