Re: can't run rsh because can't exec /usr/bin/rlogin

Running rsh without a command runs rlogin which is not supported.

That is,

	rsh hostname command    # works, runs "command"

	rsh hostname            # fails, tries to run rlogin

Use telnet if you want to remotely login.

You can always use:

	rsh hostname /bin/sh

but, telnet is much better...
