local senderID = os.pullEvent(rednet_message)
      if (senderID == "58") then
You're trying to compare the id to a string. integers and strings are different. It should be

if senderID == 58 then

Also, rednet_message should be enclosed in quotes like so:

local senderID = os.pullEvent("rednet_message")

What do you mean by a panel inside of a computer?
And if the sender ID does not equal 58 then it would still print no.

Edit:
Actually your problem is here:

local senderID = os.pullEvent(rednet_message)

os.pullEvent() returns the event first. So your code should be:

local event, senderID = os.pullEvent("rednet_message")

So you mean you want a graphical user interface?

That would require quite a bit more effort, but is certainly possible. There are a few tutorials on doing such things in the tutorial section: go check it out, and if you still need help then come back here with some code and I or another pro will walk you through it.
