the rpms do not immediately start the rsync daemon, but it
does install an initscript (/etc/init.d/systemimager).
you'll need to manual start that, and chkconfig it on if you
want it automatically started at boot time.  i'm told that
starting services from an rpm postinst is not expected.

the systemimager initscript starts an rsync daemon.  it doesn't
use an inetd service.

i just went to the manual to add this documentation, but i noticed
its already in the installation chapter.  i dunno if you were looking
at an up-to-date-enough version.
