Yes, I think you are going to have to map this out for us.

Something like:

          pg_receivexlog to ?
                  /
Machine A (Master) Archiving on ----> /some_archive_dir
                   \
                     Machine B (standby)
                   \
                Machine C (standby)

I cannot follow what is going on from the written description.
