I don't know what is going on, but to me it looks like the problem is 
at the other end. This shows that rcp is getting a premature EOF 
indication on the data stream. Either the local OS is erroneously 
delivering an EOF when one was received (unlikely) or the other end 
sent it. You could use snoop to check which it is. You could use truss 
and snoop on the other end to help you determine why. A snoop would 
confirm that the data stream was actually closed by the other host, 
since firewalls have been known to do this kind of thing.
