As far as I know, it's the same as sending it between two 2k machines. From a command prompt (start, run, cmd) type net send x message (where x is the machine name you want to send it to and message is what you want to say). Hope this helps

Hello
That how I do it:

net send /domain:<computername or workgroup> "message "

As far as I know, it's the same as sending it between two 2k machines.

From a command prompt (start, run, cmd) type net send x message (where x is
the machine name you want to send it to and message is what you want to
say). Hope this helps!

You just need to make sure the Messenger service is running on the boxes you
are attempting to send to.

It is sometimes easier to use the ip address(if you know it).

Bear in mind though that if your computer is joined to a domain and your
admins have any sense, the messenger service will have been disabled.
