Element Description Value
Identifier resource ID http://old.zope.org/Members/peterbe/NetSend
Title resource name Net Send
Description resource summary **Works only on networked NT** An interface to the 'net send ...' command on NT networks. This is a "skin" on top of doing this stuff from the commandline. Features are: - maintain a list of buddies and filter out un-sendable computers. - give aliases to users on the network - skin the interface with your own HTML code - a message log with additional features to it - hides sent message to other users - gives funky error when somebody tries to send from your computer The **purpose** of doing this was a little practise on Python Product development and the use of "ZPT":http://www.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZPT/FrontPage *in* python products. The functionality isn't very fascinating in itself, but the code is very clean and I think a very good source for learning Python Product development. It uses containers, unlike the "Boring Product":http://www.zope.org/Members/gtk/Boring which in fact I base much of my Python Product development knowledge on. **Quirk** I said it wasn't very serious!<br> Only one person can use the installed instance and the NT/2000 server/workstation that it is installed on has to be the server/workstation you use for you work. The reason it is like this is because it uses a python function to call things on the commandline of that computer Zope is installed on. Hence you cannot let other people in your office send messages from your computer because it would appear like it was you who sent them :) **Installation Instructions** Download, and extract in the Zope home dir. Restart Zope, and create an instance of NetSend anywhere. In the Configuration screen, write down *your* IP address. Depending on the URL you use for your site, you will either use '127.0.0.1' or '012.123.456.789' (of your internal network). Write these down both with a space between. It's a token. <a href="http://sitetracker.peterbe.com/AddIssue?section=NetSend&type=bug+report">Bugs</a> Have fun!
