I am using rsh, in a C routine, to remotely execute a program on
another machine. When the routine is compiled to run as a standalone
program, it works fine. However when the routine is incorporated into
a program that is run by RPC, rsh doesn't seem to work. No error
message is returned, but the program on the remote machine is not
executed.

I am using full pathnames for the rsh command and the program to be
remotely executed.

I would really appreciate any clues as to what is going on.

Thanks,

   Elan
