It would be. But where they are NOT required, it is stupid to check the 
geteuid() inside the client's rcmd :-)

Thank you very much for your explanation, Brian, rsh being an SUID is 
something I overlooked.

What I remain upset about, though, is that the rcmdsh(), which is used by 
rcmd() ignores the fd2p parameter making it impossible to capture the 
remote's stderr...

Yours,
