Does Coherent's version of UUCP have a "Permissions" file?  If so, it
sounds like a HDB, and the:

>The errormessage in his logs say No permission for Rnews.

implies that "rnews" hasn't been mentioned in the Permissions file.
(In HDB, you have to explicitly enable permission to remotely execute
commands.  Except for rmail (which is what e-mail uses) which is the
default.  If you put rnews in, you'll have to mention rmail as well.
