Bill, the advice about SCP/SSH is worth heeding, however, if you really must use rsh have you setup the appropriate .rhosts entries? ~/.rhosts must have 600 permissions for user/group/other too, i.e. rw------- and be owned be the user of the $HOME it's in.
It sometimes helps if the host on either end knows explicitly about the other host in /etc/hosts. If all that's OK then I'd have a look in /var/log/messages and /var/log/secure for pointers.
