[Linux-HA] cl_status causes errors to be printed in /var/log/messages

All-

We are working on setting up heartbeat and to create an HA NFS server.
We seem to have the basics down but are having trouble with logging.  We
are using a script that runs cl_status to monitor heartbeat and it is
filling /var/log/messages with errors.

Every time I run "cl_status rscstatus" it returns the expected results
but the following shows up in /var/log/messages:

Aug 11 20:54:22 4003a6 cl_status[4736]: info: start:optind: 1
argv[optind+1]: (null)
Aug 11 20:54:22 4003a6 cl_status[4736]: info: End: optind: 1
argv[optind+1]: (null)
Aug 11 20:54:22 4003a6 cl_status[4736]: ERROR: return value:0
Aug 11 20:54:22 4003a6 heartbeat[29873]: info: Client pid 4736 died
(input)
Aug 11 20:54:22 4003a6 heartbeat[29873]: info: EOF from client pid 4736
Aug 11 20:54:22 4003a6 heartbeat[29873]: info: Client pid 4736 died
(input)
Aug 11 20:54:22 4003a6 heartbeat[29873]: info: api_send_client: client
4736 died


Is this the expected result or is it a symptom of having something
misconfigured?

/etc/ha.d/ha.cf is as follows on both nodes:
-- Begin ha.cf --
#bcast		 eth0		#ethernet port heart beat goes over
logfacility		syslog
keepalive		1.0		# Time in seconds between
heartbeat
warntime		3.0		# Time in seconds before issuing
a warning
deadtime		6.0		# Time in seconds before a node
is considered dead
initdead          6.0		# Time network starts working after boot
ucast			eth0 10.2.3.6
ucast			eth0 10.2.4.6
updport		694		# Port that heartbeat talks over
apiauth		cl_status   uid=root,idp,haclient
auto_failback	off		# Set so when master comes back online
it takes back everything
node			4003a6	# hostname of box 'uname -a'
node			4004a6	# hostname of box 'uname -a'
respawn		hacluster /usr/lib/heartbeat/ipfail
ping 	10.2.3.2 10.2.4.2
-- End ha.cf --

I have tried running with and without the apiauth line and have run
"cl_status" as several different users always with similar (different
pids) output in messages.  

We are using heartbeat v1.2.3 and linux 2.4.29.
