  ...actually, i rather suspect you did what i did, which was give
  yourself a copy of libc.so.3.0 so you could run binaries from a
  -current box.  evidentally i've been building against this library not
  libc.so.2.2.  i wouldn't think it would matter much, except that 3.0
  doesn't seem to match a 2.1 kernel, and hence these errors. [that's my
  guess, at least]  try ldd'ing your rsh.

bofh# ldd `which rsh`
/usr/bin/rsh:
        -lc.3 => /usr/lib/libc.so.3.0 (0x801c000)

bofh# cd /usr/lib
bofh# mv libc.so.3.0 libc.so.3.0.disabled
bofh# ln -s libc.so.2.2 libc.so.3.0  

% rlogin shellx
  Best Internet Communications, Inc.     Mountain View, California  USA

And Bingo was his name.  Do you expect that my linking 3.0 to 2.2 will
cause any problems?  (jeez, that sounds like a dumb question, but what
the heck...)

thanks
