Mack,
Not doubting what you say, but have you actually seen this happen??
I would think its a bug, as Novell & Lantastic do allow multiple login..
If I was log'd in at several stations (which was normal) & a message was sent 
to me, I had to clear it at all the stations..
I would be supprised if OS/2 network couldnt handle this..
Could you (or anyone) point me to something in the docks showing this or a 
work around??
If I was at my last job, I couldnt be limited to login in to just 1 
w-station..  Had to many things running at once..   :}
Then again, with OS/2's multi tasking I guess I would have had all these 
tasks running from the 1 w-station??   Hmmm..
