"Net Send" doesn't work

J

Jason

We are readying XP for mass deployment - however I just
discovered a feature we rely on doesn't seem to be
working...
CMD> Net Send computername "this is a message for you"
usually pops up a dialog box on the destination computer,
however, with XP Prof sp1, it gives an error: "An error
occurred while sending a message to 'computername'. The
message alias could not be found on the network".

Windows Messenger and Alerter services are on. This
works on our 2000 machines, just not XP.

Ideas?
Thanks!
