Hi,

I am running a pvm program using the master-slave paradigm where the master
kill s off slaves at the end and then exits itself. When I run the program ,
the slaves get killed alright but the master doesn't exit. A 'ps' shows status
of master as 'o,c,f' ( i.e task connection being closed,task connected etc.)
Is this normal ??

TIA,
Chet
