Redhat 9.0 is very old.  Redhat themselves (I understand) won't support
it.  Consider moving to a current version of that OS (Redhat, or one of
its derivatives such as Fedora or Centos... but this list may not be the
place for such details).

heartbeat-1.0.4 is ancient, and totally unsupported.  If you want to stay
with the heartbeat-1.x series, use its latest (1.2.5, I think).

But ideally try the heartbeat-2.x series.  The official release is 2.0.8,
but I understand that a 2.1.0 is also available and preferred by some
people.

Summary: Use a current OS and a current heartbeat release.  Hope that
helps.
