Enter NET to get a list of options. NET HELP {option} gives help on any particular one. You need NET SEND for messages and NET VIEW to display a list of networked PCs.
Along what rambler already mentioned, the Messenger Service must be enabled in order to use the NET SEND for sending messages one-way, or turning off the built-in firewall in Windows XP if it's enabled.
