I have found the solution I am looking for. 1. wall writes to all connected directly to the Linux box. 2. rwall transmits the message across rpc to the rest of the Linux network. 3. smbclient transmits the message to the samba network Now it is on to putting all the pieces together to create the little system that I am working on. Thanks to all for the help, it pointed me in the right direction.
