Check out "man 8 rlogind". It talks about ports:
1. The server checks the client's source port. If the port is not in
the range 512-1023, the server aborts the connection.
Also make sure the remote hosts allows rlogin connections:
grep rlogin /etc/inetd.conf
Just what error message do you get? Anything in the logs?
