| net send command works only on LAN ? if yes then which command will work on WAN/internet ? | |
|
| I don't think you can use it over the Internet. The net command uses netbios to connect and seek out nodes on the network using broadcasts. Since broadcast do not work through routers I believe you're out of luck. That my two cents.

| But netbios is routable thats why Microsoft recommends for netbios instead of netbeui Now what do you say ? Plus how can you connect to your machicne on the internet if you are outside except VPN ? | |

| Netbios may be routed in a tunnel mode.(Inside a routed protocol.) It is not routable in and of itself. The trick is for you to be able to tell it when to be routed. Routers by nature are supposed to segment broadcast domains. | |

| net send not only works in Lan environment, it works on wan as well, it is using netbios over ip to get to the destination. It depends on your isp as well, usually they don~{!/~}t allow broadcast traffic to go through their backbone network.
It doesn~{!/~}t matter what mode does the vpn uses, it really depends on the router at the remote side. | |

| netbios is NOT routable. It must be wrapped in a routed protocol like TCP. NetBios would work through a VPN because it creates a IPSec tunnel which makes it think it is on a LAN. Try using a netsend command using a UNC path using IP and see if that works.
