NET SEND v.s. MSG.exe

I need to know how to use the MSG.exe function with Vista Business to send
message to both vista and win2k users. All machines are in the same domain.
I'm local admin on my box.

If I use
MSG * /serverthervistabox test message
I get the error Error 5 getting session names.

If I use
MSG * /server:win2kbox test message
I get the error Error 1722 getting session names

Any help will be appreciated.

Well, what happens when you do Net Send?
