Hi Jesus,
You can try KSalup
KSalup supports two protocols :

     Communication with a computer running Winpopup or using the
 NetBios protocol over TCP sending and receiving messages through Samba.

     Communication with computers on a local subnet, using the
 Netbios protocol over UDP, compatible with almost all of the current
softwares
 (Kurupop, Pipo p, Salup, Windows NT, ...)
Cheers,
Jonathan
