There are two ways to run remctld: either run it from inetd or xinetd, or
run it as a daemon.  If you're trying to run it as a standalone daemon,
which the above implies, you need to add the -m option.  Generally, I
would recommend running it from inetd; it's usually simpler.  But if you
want to start it from the command line one time just to see how it works,
I recommend remctld -mSFd, which starts it in daemon mode (-m), logging to
standard output instead of syslog (-S), without backgrounding itself (-F),
and with debug logging enabled (-d).  This will let you see exactly what
it's doing.
