This is probably quite elementary for many of you, but I'm not up on
the local LAN and Peer tools...

My desk is on the bottom level; my wife's is two floors up.  We have a
simple communications problem:

* Phone rings.
* Wife answers; the call's for me; I'm on the other line.

=>  What is a really quick and easy way to send a simple message from
'up there' to 'down here' without a lot of set up?   Ideally, the
message would just pop up on my screen and stay there until I kill it. More than one?  Pop another message window.

Seems simple enough...  I'm just more simple...  ;-)  Yes, she could always send an E-Mail, but that seems like a bit
excessive, when we have a LAN that both systems are using.  Both
running eCS 1.0.

Thanks,
Carl

 

Put Network Messaging in your startup group.  eCS usually does this automatically when installed.  Also you  could use the AOL Instant Messenger Express.  It can be started from Mozilla.
