Hate replying to myself, but rebooting the linux server solved the problem of not being able to start the remote linux agent. Surprised the box had to be rebooted. Did everyone else have to reboot also?
I had myself problems starting the remote agent service until I found out that a stray beremote process was still running when ever I stopped the RALUS service. Kill that process and you should be able to start the service properly.
