You probably want to use rlogin instead of rsh. What netkit-rsh does is
that if you omit a command to execute on the remote host, it actually
starts netkit-rlogin. Rsh-redone just executes your empty command and
immediately exits. This is not a bug, just a missing feature, therefore
I downgraded the severity.
