Well here's what I've discovered so far regarding these problems when
building the system on RH9
i) gexecd is failing to authenticate the gexec client due to an issue
related to the following function.
static int gexec_tni_auth(gexecd_state *s, credentials *tc_creds,
signature *tc_creds_sig)
ii) gexec command output stalls and fails to return control to the
shell. gexecd is also stalling on sem_wait call below.
static void *gexecd_thr(void *arg)
<snip>
sem_wait(&s->cleanup_sem);
cleanup:
pthread_attr_destroy(&attr);
gexecd_state_destroy(s);
return NULL;
}
Can anyone confirm these problems building ganglia execution system on
RH9
Cheers
