Hi I am trying to write a console message to another user, who is in via SSH, and it goes through, no problem. WHen he tries to write back to me, it wont let him. So I tried, and it wont let me write to myself either, except from a Root account. So I thought, mesg might be disabled, but not. When I disable mesg, it gives a different error. Here are the errors, and the output of mesg
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ write ben write: ben has messages disabled [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ mesg is y Now when I disable mesg, I get this error. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ write ben write: write: you have write permission turned off. That error I understand but when I enable mesg, why I cannot send myself a message still, and why cannt other users send me as well?
