I'm trying to do a rdist from FreeBSD to linux, but get this message:
linuxhost: LOCAL ERROR: Exec old rdist failed: /usr/ucb/oldrdist: 
No such file or directory.

Looking at man at the linux, it says
 
	"The -Server option is recognized to provide partial back-
	ward compatible support for older versions of rdist
	which used this option to put rdist into server mode.  If rdist
	is started with the -Server command line option, it will 
	attempt tp exec (run) the old verson of rdist.  This 
	option will only work of rdist was compiled with the loca-
	tion of the old rdist (usually either /usr/bin/oldrdist or 
	/usr/old/rdist) and that program is available at run time.

So it seems the FreeBSD rdist is what linux regards as an older version...

What do I do now?
