[xcat-user] xcatd not responding

We are running no other databases other than the xCAT one
All xcat commands are failing.
xCAT 2.1.2 snap 200901091905 and 200901221654
RHEL Server 5

I'm thinking I should update;  we need xen support hence the snapshots  
from back in Janurary.

I did a "yum update" a couple of days ago and it looks like these to  
RPMs from xCAT-dep were "upgraded":

xCAT                            RHELs5
perl-Expect-1.21-1.noarch.rpm   perl-Expect-1.21-1.el5.rf
perl-IO-Tty-1.07-1.x86_64.rpm   perl-IO-Tty-1.07-1.el5.rf
