Can I get messenger to run on an internal LAN with no
outside connection.Reasom is I want two people in
different rooms of our house to communicate via messenger.

Thanks for any help.

Greetings Derek,

No, unless you have an Exchange server or SIP-based communications service setup (unlikely
and unnecessary in your configuration). Instead, you might want to try something like
LanTalk XP:
