thats what i was afraid of. see what the whole point of this is, is that i wanted to write a message to users to stay logged off the system until a predetermined time. so, lets say i am rebuilding a index for a database and i want everyone to stay off the system until 10:00, the message would be on the screen. but, when i use 'wall' it does not show up, just the login screen.
