Actually, on a Debian system the real path is /usr/sbin/rmt, with a
convenience wrapper script provided in /etc to allow interaction with
clients on non-Debian systems that assume that path for rmt.  I'm going
to try setting that as the default.  Anyone trying to use a Debian
client against a non-Debian server is probably already feeding the path
for rmt on their particular server type as an argument, anyway.

Thanks for pointing out the problem.  Fixed in my CVS for the next
upload.
