I would freakin break your head open if you ever did that on my machine.

My luck, i'd do it here and I've have 25 people coming to me telling me that their computers have been hAx0rEd!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, now that I think about it....I was the sole reason the "wall" command was removed from the permissions list on our mail server at college.

Thanks... this'll give me something to play around with... I was able to use Winpopup to send messages to computers on the network with WinXP.... However, given the screwy system they have for naming computers here.... I can't tell who has which computer for most of the computers on the network (and I don't want to send messages to people at random)..

Come to think of it, I don't think there was a version 3.31 for Netware...

Did you get this number from the client login screen?

If you're running later versions of Netware, then the SEND command might not be there.

I was an network admin intern a few summers ago. As I was walking around the office, I saw a guy paying his bills online. My boss and I net sended him from the server saying all his bank info had been obtained.

A few minutes later, the guy comes running up to us almost yelling at us that somehow his computer got hacked and someone was stealing his bank account info. The look on his face was priceless 🙂

We told him the truth and had a good laugh.

I changed my computer name to "Free-Porn" and did some Net Sends last April Fool's.
