[comp.unix.ultrix] rsh/rlogin help

Hi.  

     I have a problem with rsh.

     Machine: DECstation 3100
     OS:      Ultrix 4.2 Beta
     Description:
     	when superuser (or one or two of the other users), rsh works
	fine.  However, from my personal login, rsh machine command
	returns: 
		 rcmd: socket: Permission denied
	My first thought was that protections were set up wrong.
	However, it does work for other non-super-users.  Also, rsh
	machine will give me a shell on the remote machine with no
	problems.   Any suggestions?
