I'm using Win xp to log on to Our win 2000 server domain.

I try to send some messages using Net Send command but there was error. that is

"The message alias could not be found on the network"

Clarifications

whats the syntax of your net send command? are you entering it in correctly?

also on xp sp2 and up net send is disabled, to get it running you have to start the service "Messenger" see if that helps too

Messenger service on client should be running.

syntax = net send "netbios name" "message"
