Command Prompt "net send"
I'm trying to send people messages through the network....
of course it doesn't work and I get error messages....
I am absolutely positive I have the right ip address and they are on the same work group as I am...
What else do I have to change?

Oh man, I miss doing that sort of thing.
Stupid question, but are there any firewalls up?

Re: Command Prompt "net send"
messenger service has to be running as well.
xp sp2 & later turn this service off by default.
spammers like to deliver messages using this service.
