windows server How to send a message after user login

[Guest Alek Luchnikov]

Hello, All!

 

Some times I check login users on terminal server by "query user" command.

 

But I want that a message displayed automatically now.

 

I writing cmd for myself: query user Demo && net send Alek "Demo Online"

 

My cmd doesn't work.

 

 

 

Is there any idea send message after user login?

 

 

 

With best regards, Alek Luchnikov.

Hi!

 

Just wnat to make sure I understand: you want a message to be sent to the

admin after the user loggs in?

 

You can look into msg.exe - this is a command line utility to send mesasges

to users:

G:\>msg /?

Send a message to a user.

 

MSG {username | sessionname | sessionid | @filename | *}

[/sERVER:servername] [/TIME:seconds] [/V] [/W] [message]

 

username Identifies the specified username.

sessionname The name of the session.

sessionid The ID of the session.

@filename Identifies a file containing a list of usernames,

sessionnames, and sessionids to send the message to.

* Send message to all sessions on specified server.

/SERVER:servername server to contact (default is current).

/TIME:seconds Time delay to wait for receiver to acknowledge msg.

/V Display information about actions being performed.

/W Wait for response from user, useful with /V.

message Message to send. If none specified, prompts for it

or reads from stdin.

 

Thanks,

Geanina

Vista editions other than the Home editions include a new command, MSG.EXE. Type MSG /? in a command prompt to get the syntax. Try sending yourself a message: MSG "username" "BOO!". You can add the /TIME switch to make the message auto-close after a number of seconds. I think you'll find that MSG is a good replacement for NET SEND. And it doesn't even require the other system to be running the Messenger service

 

Use a third party LAN messenger maybe a good choice to replace net send command.
