cfexecd in daemon mode not invoking cfagent

[Mark McCullough]

cfengine version 2.1.6

Linux (RHEL 3.0)

I have cfexecd in daemon mode (invoked as /usr/sbin/cfexecd)

I checked /var/cfengine/bin, it has cfagent in it no problem.

Messages in cfengine resemble:

cfexecd[24111]: Couldn't connect to host localhost
cfexecd[24111]: connect: Connection refused

I have cfservd running, but when I try cfrun, I get errors like:

Couldn't open a socket
socket: No route to host

(Yet I can ssh to those boxes without problem)

Any ideas where to look?
