... and you really shouldn't be doing this, as it's bordering on
irresponsible. Andrew makes RHEL/CentOS 5 Heartbeat/Glue/Pacemaker
builds available on the clusterlabs.org website for free, and we offer
them commercially supported. There is really no reason for anyone to be
using 2.1.3 in production anymore.
