I believe that bach would be the username that you would use on
faun.example.org. Note the test command:
<SNIP>
rsh -l bach faun.example.org 'echo $PATH'
</SNIP>
You probably should not learn rsh from a CVS manual. Read the rsh manual page
on the system to which you will be connecting.
Better yet, visit http://openssh.org/manual.html and read up on ssh, which is
a more secure and less problematic remote connection method. Of course, you may not
be able to use this, but if you can, it is the better way to fly.
