hi...
      I have some queries regarding lam-mpi.

    1) In Lam-Mpi in file otb/sys/lamd/lamd_main.c
    lam daemons are calling run_kernel() function...so I want to ask how is
the interaction between lam daemons and mpirun taking place.
    And how is the similar thing happening in open mpi.

    2) What is the significance of daemons in the process of
checkpointing....as fas as I can figure out daemons are used only to fork
application processes and to catch the SIGCHLD signal....

   thanks
