Did you compile your sample program with the -mno-cygwin flag or
with a non-cygwin compiler ?
I'm asking because this problem reminds me of an issue I reported
last year (http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-02/msg02224.html)
and which is still unresolved (actually, I don't think that
anyone really paid attention to my report ;-).

Anyway, running cygwin and non-cygwin binaries of your
sample program using rsh gives interesting results:

$ rsh localhost main_cygwin
stdout
$ rsh localhost main_nocygwin
stderr

Make sure you're running Cygwin's rsh first.  Also, visit:

rshd and stdout

[David Reid]

I'm using rsh to run a command on a remote machine.
But I only get output back from stderr, not from 
stdout. Here is my sample program and the output:

   main() {
  fprintf(stdout, "stdout\n");
  fprintf(stderr, "stderr\n");   
   }

   $ rsh machine1 ./main
   stderr

How can I get stdout back to the rsh client?

Note: cygwin rshd is running on a windows box, rsh can

be on windows or linux, the result is the same.
It works as I would expect when using the linux rshd 
on a linux box (it prints stdout and stderr)
