'rsh' without arguments is identical to 'rlogin'.  'who' works fine
with it.

Opening an 'xterm' or 'aixterm' window on the local host via an 'rsh'
to the remote host ("rsh remotehost aixterm -display localhost") does
not produce a usable response from 'who'.  Of course, if you do this
$DISPLAY is already set properly.
