I had the same problem under SunOS 4.0 (just closing stdin/out/err didn't
work) so I wrote a small program to close everything.  The major part of
the program is this:

  for (fd = 0; fd < getdtablesize(); fd++)
    close (fd);

everything else is just support and other things which are nice but
not necessary.

Here is the complete program:
[Usage:  rsh -n host unrsh rprocess]

#! /bin/sh
# This is a shell archive.  Remove anything before this line, then unpack
# it by saving it into a file and typing "sh file".  To overwrite existing
# files, type "sh file -c".  You can also feed this as standard input via
# unshar, or by typing "sh <file", e.g..  If this archive is complete, you
# will see the following message at the end:
#		"End of shell archive."
