If you switch to SSH, you can solve this by putting this into your
~/.ssh/config file:
Host myremotehost
User duncan_roe
That is, you can override defaults (like login name) on a per-connection
basis. Anything you can pass as an option to ssh(1) can be changed
here, so you don't have to keep providing the option.
With pre-shared keys, I don't think you'll see a difference in behavior
relative to rsh.
