I didn't find a ready-to-use program, so I use something like this
inside an executable script:

    for i in $(cat /path/clientlist.txt)
    do
      echo message_text | smbclient -M $i &
    done

clientlist.txt is an ASCII file containing a list of all NetBIOS names
of the PCs in the network, e.g.:

ACCOUNTING
JOHN
BILL_PC
SHARED
etc...

message_text is the text you want to send.
