when trying to send a message to all users on the LAN using net send /users,
i get this error message "no users has session with this server" even when i
try to send to a specific user i am not able to get it done. please any help?

well i guess i sort this one out, but if i want to send a message to a
specefic user which happen to have the same name on all the computers on the
LAN then i guess i have to specify the computer name, so can anyone tell me
the syntax please? for instance the user i want to send a message to, is
named "employee" and it is on the computer named "STT" how the syntax would
be?
thank you

Hello,

this should be
net send /domain:STT Message

or, if you only have the username:
net send employee Message

when you want to send a message to all users in the domain, you should use:
net send /domainomainame Message

but the Messenger Service has to be running on the recipients and on your
computer, else you will receive an Error-Message

Regards, Frank
