Using write to send a message to another computer
Hi
I have two linux computers running mint 17. On both computers I set mesg y to allow communications.
The write commands works locally but when I want to send a message to another computer it doesn't seem to work.
I've tried this syntax to no avail
write blah@192.168.0.111 and I get this error
write: blah@192.168.0.111 is not logged in on pts/0
That's funny because blah is logged in. Is the write command only limited to talking on the same machine?
Thanks
