KLinPopup is a program like Linpopup, Linpopup2 (Gtk2+) or KPopup (heavily based on this) to receive and send Windows popup messages (Winpopup or "net send") with Unix/Linux.
It uses Samba to do this. You should be able to receive/send messages from/to OSs where Samba is running on (e.g. BSDs, Linux, OSX) and of course Windows 2000/XP. For Windows 95/ME you need an additional Winpopup program.

Also Kopete can handle winpopup messages (works in 0.12 again).
Kopete 0.12beta2 is out, packages for various distributions are here.

Features:

• receive and send winpopup messages via samba ;-)
• can start only docked
• adjustable new message signaling (sound, tray, activate window, custom command)
• adjustable timer for incoming messages
• adjustable sender string for incoming messages
• you can choose the sender name for new messages
• sending one message to multiple hosts
• can use inotify for message checking
• autoreply
