No, the join (the ioctl performed by fenced) is asynchronous. The only way to really tell that it's complete is to monitor the proc file. (I know this may not be very nice, but it's not going to change in this generation of the code. If you don't want to use proc, don't use -w.) -- Dave Teigland <teigland@xxxxxxxxxx>
