I have a lot of ubuntu PC. I want to use some client messaging. But i don't know which software should i use in ubuntu.

Actually i have 19 PC's, i want the 18 PC can send some message to 1 PC. so, the 1 PC can receive all message from another PC. BUt, the 1 PC is not a server. It just a client but another client just send the message to it.

Did Ubuntu have this software?

You could use talk, a command-line based program for this purpose.

I believe it's installed by default, if not try sudo apt-get install inetutils-talk.

Package info found here.

Pidgin and Empathy support Bonjour network-local messaging. (avahi-daemon is needed.)
