What were you trying to do?
Use rsh.ucb
What's wrong:
It will always fail, with:
jump-master ~)/usr/ucb/rsh.ucb fionavar.mit.edu
rsh.ucb: unknown host
The problem, I would guess, is because it is checking the first
argument to see if it is "rsh"; if not, it assumes that is the host
you wanted to execute the command on.
What should have happened:
The sources should be hacked to change the name that it checks argv[0]
against to be "rsh.ucb"; the same hack that is in r1.2 of rsh.ucb.c in
/source/bsd-4.3/common/ucb.
