Oh crap, what was it...? netsend? There was some command you use use with NT based machines... You'd type something like netsend * Hi And it'd send Hi to every machine on the network. Otherwise you'd use the IP address(s) for the machines you want to send messages to.

yep "net send" works great. You will need to have the msg service enabled, and one (by default it is)...

Then type in the command prompt "net send computername" or "net send workgroup"

You can do it by ip aswell.
