Re: talk command

user1 must allow messages:

# mesg y

user2 sends a request

# talk user1

user1 will be informed and talks back:

# talk user2

connection established.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: talk command

RK,

I don't think talk works on hp-ux. It never used to, but maybe they have fixed it now?
If I can, I will!
