Thank you so much for this input. With those changes, it works now and the
server process terminates at the Finalize call. I had been calling
Disconnect only on the intra-communicators earlier. Calling it on the
inter-communicators and doing the same thing on the client, did the trick
:).

Very useful and interesting. Thanks again.
