Default Can I send messages over my LAN?

I have recently created a LAN. I have heard that you can send messages over
LAN, but I cannot find out how anywhere.

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium.

Thanks in advance.

you used to be able to open a cmd window and issue a
net send \\computer "message"

but it doesn't seem to be available anymore.

Chris,

Try "net send /?".

I tried that, but SEND is missing...
at least in Home Premium.

It's in XP.

Hello Dave, the Net Send command is no longer supported in Windows Vista
like it used to be in Windows 2000 or XP.

You might want to consider either LanTalk XP or you can try NetSend which
you can obtain here.
