There is an errata pending for rsh for AS2.1, although i am not sure if it fixes your problem. Preliminary binaries can be downloaded here: http://people.redhat.com/pknirsch/ These packages have not gone through QA yet, but have been tested by myself on a local box and worked fine. If you want to you can give them a shot and let me know if they fix your problem. Thanks, Read ya, Phil
