Probabl you do not have rsh (in the rsh-client package) installed. Because ssh is command-line compatible with rsh, and is often used with programs which expect this interface, ssh provides the alternative /usr/bin/rsh. If you install rsh-client, that client will provide a higher-priority alternative for /usr/bin/rsh. You can examine the current alternatives with "update-alternatives --config rsh". -- - mdz
