Misc. Samba questions

A couple Samba questions. I've got Samba v2.2.1a running on a RedHat v7.1
box. The server is being accessed by Linux, Win98, Win2K and OS/2 clients.
1. User xxxxx is logged into 2 machines, a Win2K box and a Linux box. When
user yyyyy on a Win98 machine sends a message from WinPopup to user xxxxx,
the message is received on only the Win2K machine. (The Linux box is
running LinPopup, which sends/receives messages just fine.) Is this
behavior expected, or should both machines with xxxxx logged in receive the
message?
2. The "level2 oplocks" param is documented as improving the performance
of Samba with WinNT/Win2K clients. Does its use have a detrimental effect
on Win98, Linux or OS/2 client performance?
Thanks.
