hi...
is there a way to talk to users on other machines within my network?
the 'talk' function apparently only works with users on the same box..
I don't think that is correct. Two reasons: man page shows synopsis and text that tends to indicate it will talk across machines; second I got a nice connection refused message when I tried it here. I expected that message.
Do you have more details about your (apparent?) failure to succeed? Commands tried, config files altered, etc.?
