Well, ksh's non-login file hasn't got a real name. (Most of the time it's
$HOME/.kshrc, but YMMV.) The name is coming from
the ENV environment variable, settable in /etc/profile or ~/.profile - but
they weren't read. Catch22.
So the solution is use absolute pathnames, like:
rsh machine2 /etc/rmt
or
rsh machine2 /usr/sbin/rmt
or I don't know, which is the path of rmt in your machine2.
Bye, Gabor
