gotcha: http://www.seriss.com/rush-current/misc/rsh-config.html
Having an issue where windows boxes can not rsh to mac boxes. Mac to Mac
works great.
I get the following when trying to connect to a mac from a pc:
rsh host -l username uname
host: Permission denied.
rsh: can't establish connection
Firewalls have been disabled.
