I am trying to execute rsync manually at a "remote" server to test out --read-batch 
execution.

I created the batch files on another server and then rcp'ed them to the "remote" 
server. I had some issues of not having the
correct working directory on the remote system when I did an rsh "remote" rsync 
--read-batch ...... so I opened a telnet session
on the remote system and did the following command

rsync --backup --read-batch=brf --block-size=1000 /test/miki_briefcase

result was rsync:writefd_unbuffered failed to write 64 bytes: phase "unknown": Broken 
Pipe

brf.rsync_argvs contains the following
rsync -acvv --rsh=rsh --backup --stats --read-batch=brf --block-size=1000 
${1:-/test/miki_briefcase}

I have tried the command with and without -acvv --rsh --stats and it always fails with 
the same message

I would appreciate any pointers as to what I am screwing up. I have chmod'ed all the 
brf* files to 0777 and the execution account
owns all of them.

I also tried to do the rsh "remote" alternative from the "local" server and it has a 
problem finding brf.rsync_flist. I strongly suspect this
is because the rsh's rlogin is setting the working directory to /home/wally.
