We have a service that we start up remotely with rsh but unfortunately, the rsh never returns to the calling server. This seems to be because the processes of the service we've just started hold the port open.RBATTE1 @ /home/RBATTE1>netstat -na|grep 49.51

ocf_heartbeat_rsyncd
OCF_HEARTBEAT_RSYNCD(7) OCF resource agents OCF_HEARTBEAT_RSYNCD(7)NAME
ocf_heartbeat_rsyncd - Manages an rsync daemon
SYNOPSIS
rsyncd [start | stop | monitor | meta-data | validate-all]
DESCRIPTION
This script manages rsync daemon
SUPPORTED PARAMETERS
binpath
The rsync binary path. For example, "/usr/bin/rsync" (optional, string, default rsync)
conffile
The rsync daemon configuration file name with full path. For example, "/etc/rsyncd.conf" (optional, string, default /etc/rsyncd.conf)
bwlimit
This option allows you to specify a maximum transfer rate in kilobytes per second. This option is most effective when using rsync with
large files (several megabytes and up). Due to the nature of rsync transfers, blocks of data are sent, then if rsync determines the
transfer was too fast, it will wait before sending the next data block. The result is an average transfer rate equaling the specified
limit. A value of zero specifies no limit. (optional, string, no default)
SUPPORTED ACTIONS
This resource agent supports the following actions (operations):
start
Starts the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s.
stop
Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s.
monitor
Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s. Suggested interval: 60s.
validate-all
Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s.
meta-data
Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5s.
EXAMPLE
The following is an example configuration for a rsyncd resource using the crm(8) shell:
primitive p_rsyncd ocf:heartbeat:rsyncd
op monitor depth="0" timeout="20s" interval="60s"
