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.

Will.
