NAME

nsend − Send messages to users

SYNOPSIS

nsend [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password
| -n ] [ -C ] user message

DESCRIPTION

With nsend, you can send messages to the user’s workstations.

nsend looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information. Please note that the access permissions of .nwclient MUST be 600, for security reasons.

OPTIONS

user

user is the NetWare User-ID of the user to receive the message.

message

message is the message to be sent. Please note that this has to be a single command line argument. If you want to send a message that contains spaces, you have to quote them on the command line. For example, to annoy your system administrator, you should try

nsend supervisor ’I know how this works!’

-S server

server is the name of the server you want to use.

-U user name

If the user name your NetWare administrator gave to you differs from your unix user-id, you should use -U to tell the server about your NetWare user name.

-P password

You may want to give the password required by the server on the command line. You should be careful about using passwords in scripts.

-n

-n should be given to mount shares which do not require a password to log in.

If neither -n nor -P are given, nsend prompts for a password.

-C

By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C.

BUGS

nsend only supports servers with up to 255 connections. I do not know the NCP functions for larger servers. If anybody knows them, please tell me!
