I think rsh needs to be suid.  This should have been fixed in the latest GNU
inetutils package, but apparently it isn't.  If that fixes it, please file a
Debian bug report against the inetutils package (send mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] which starts with the following pseudo header:

Package: inetutils
Version: n/a

rsh doesn't work...
