Pardon me for asking such a simple questions, but what is the best way of 1) messaging offline users on my system? No e-mail please, I want something more concrete, something displayed immediately upon login, no need to go via a third party app. 2) talking to users logged onto my system? I find ntalk too frustrating, and ytalk too ASCII artsy. Anything else out there under the sun? Much obliged, ladies and gentlemen. Redd -- http://www.home.no/reddvinylene
