I've been using gexec since a while and ganglia is one of the project
that use it.
I've found a bug in authd when you are using an openssl >= 0.9.7. In
that case gexec is no more usable ("could not connect to nodex).
The author of authd/gexec doesn't seems to be really here so I also send
my patch here in order to help people that uses gexec :)
So patch your authd, then rebuild gexec & pcp. It works. :)
This patch is included in the authd-0.2.1-16mdk rpm (mandrake cooker).
