Subject: Problem after tasks are spawned -- children never seem to receive tid's

I am working on my VERY FIRST pvm programming problem.  The parent is
supposed to send copies of a vector to its children.  I can get to the
point where the program prints out "Spawned <the correct number> of 
tasks" and the return codes for pvm_initsend, pvm_pkinit, & pvm_mcast
seem to be ok, but that is as far as I get.  I never receive anything
indicating that the children have received each others (or the parent's)
tid ....  the program just exits without doing anything else.  

I have pvm_recv & pvm_upkint in place -- 

I would really appreciate any help anyone could give me in figuring out
what is missing from my program.  I have spent quite a bit of time
reading the documentation, & cannot find the problem.

Thanks very much.
