Here's the scenario: I have a Vista Business box, a member of the
domain. I'm a domain admin on the box, and when I run an elevated
command prompt and type:

msg 1 /SERVER:XXXXX test

I get "Error 5 getting session name" each time. I've tried several
variations but haven't been able to get msg.exe to work in the same way
net send would. Do I need to have a 2008 DC in the mix to get msg.exe to
work? If not, what could be the issue?
