Question Using the smbclient
Hi,
I am trying to use smbclient to send message to a windows machine.It is showing "connection failed message" . After googled I came to know about "smbfind" which will give me the nodes in my network. In that list the machine name was not present where I was trying to send the message.
Now I would like to know how can I check in windows machine whether it can receive a popup messages or not . Also what shall I do to make that windows system able to receive popups.


Thanks

Not clear if you are looking for.

Windows Service name: Messenger
Description: Transmits net send and Alerter service messages between clients and servers. This service is not related to Windows Messenger. If this service is stopped, Alerter messages will not be transmitted. If this service is disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start.
