NET SEND AND GUI

[craizie]

Does anyone know if there is a gui interface for sending net send messages across the network for Windows NT/2000/XP? Something similar to 'shutdown' command where if you type 'shutdown /i' it launches a gui interface instead.

Thanks

hi,

you can create a Vb script for sending the message. but you can send message on the network by using Machine name or username who is loggfen in on that machine.

This is the script...


try this out.


on error resume next
Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2
Dim fso, f , MyFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot
Set objWSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell&quot
Set f = fspenTextFile("y:\netsend\machines.txt", ForReading)
Dim MachineName
Dim counter
dim myarray(1000)

counter=0

Do While f.AtEndOfStream <> True
retstring = f.ReadLine
counter = counter + 1
Loop

f.Close
Set f = fspenTextFile(&quot;y:\netsend\machines.txt&quot;, ForReading)

For x= 1 to counter
MyArray(x) = f.ReadLine
Next
msg = &quot;Enter your Message here&quot;
msg = InputBox(&quot;Please type your message below.&quot; & vbCRLF & &quot;If you cancel or leave this entry unchanged. It will get cancel&quot;,&quot;Windows Net Send&quot;,msg)

If (msg = &quot;Enter your Message here&quot; OR msg = &quot;&quot Then ' Don't send message
Wscript.Quit
End If


for y = 1 to counter
MachineName=MyArray
objWSHShell.run &quot;net send &quot;&MachineName&&quot; &quot;&msg, 7, False

next

I have used RealPopup which is Freeware

and LanMessage which is a very small single file and was freeware with version 2 but now appears to be shareware.
