After 19 views, there were no replies.......... Does this mean that, there are no chances of sending message from one linux pc to another or does this mean that no 1 know how to answer it....
cheers..... |
please make your question clear.you want to send messages in a LAN or what??
|
try "mesg" if you want to pass messages over a lan
|
yes... In a lan how do you send message?????
we use netsend followed by ipaddress and followed by a message to the neighbour pc. Like that in a lan how to send message to other linux pc??? I use mandrake linux 9.1.. My friend also uses the same. How do i send message to him???? cheers..... |

use 'write' or 'wall'.wall sends the message to all the users logged in.
|

thanxz..... cheers |
hey i tried that man..... No users have logged in. I got this message..
Is there any way that I can just send message.?????? did u get it? when i type write xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx hi i get this write: 192.168.100.76 is not logged in on hi. wat to do????? All the machines are in lan... how to send message to them/???? |
use the other users login id with write.all the users who has logged in can be seen by 'finger' or 'w' or 'who'.
