You will need something to send messages to if you don't want to use the Messenger service. If you google "Desktop Alert Software" you will find a lot of 3rd party solutions for this. |

Why do you not get the service activated instead so you can use NET SEND? |

Run a script using pstools to reable the messenger service then use netsend, then have your script turn the service back off. Download pstools from sysinternals Download EZ-execute from penguin bytes Make 3 batch files psservice \%computername% start messenger net send * Hello World psservice \%computername% stop messenger Use EZ-Execute to run the 1st script against the domain Use the 2nd script to send the message to the domain Use EZ-Execute to run the 3rd script against the domain You could also put this all into one script using psexec if you are going to do this on a regular basis. http://ss64.com/nt/psservice.html http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-u/net%5Fsend.mspx?mfr=true |
