And what is the user does not want to install your service ? Why are you forcing him to install your application on his machine ? He can pull you in the court for that....

If you have not active directory you can do it:

1- Make server one of the stations
2- Build a new Service and install on your server it should do these tasks:
2-1. Ping the other stations
2-2. If the station answer the ping it should check your sms service
2-3. If your station have not sms service so ok your Service should install sms service on this machine

However you should pay attention to for this purpose you need a socket programming and Client/Server Architect.

Best Regards.
