[Samba] can i send win popup msg from any computer in the same subnet ?

[James.Q.L]

Dear all,

i want to send windows popup message from a redhat 9.0 box in the same
subnet.
the receivers are on group of 'ECON'.
does this redhat machine have to be the samba server to send win msg ?

error i got is "Connection to econ02 failed"

econ02 is a XP pro machine and a popup service is running.

#nmblookup econ02 can resolve the correct ip.

querying econ02 on 130.63.230.255
130.63.230.42 econ02<00>
192.168.0.1 econ02<00>
192.168.61.1 econ02<00>

#nmblookup -M -- -
