Hello,
I am using Windows 2K Professional.
We (DBA) use net send command to tell users when Database is ready to be requested against (maintenance, time-consumming request or feed-in finished etc...)

I cannot reach one of the users become his name is the same than his machine name.
so :
c:\NET SEND his_name/DOMAIN:FRANCE
fails and brings an syntax-error message :

NET SEND {name | * | /DOMAIN[:name] | /USERS} message

c:\NET SEND his_machine message
fails too.

It used to be OK when we were Windows NT + Windows 98. It doesn't works any more ...
What can I do ???

Thanks for your help !
