Hi Gilles,

If you want someting really light weight there is always the old 
winpopup protocoll.

For example: smbclient -M NETBIOSNAME < text.txt (on linux)

I am unsure about support in later versions of Windows but up to at 
least win2000 this pops up a simple message box on the windows machine 
remotely.
