I have a hello world program that runs without prompting for password with 
plm_rsh_agent but not with orte_rsh_agent, I mean it runs but only after 
prompting for a password:

<path>/bin/mpirun --machinefile mpihosts.dat -np 16 -mca plm_rsh_agent 
/usr/bin/rsh ./test_setup

Hello from process            2
Hello from process            5
Hello from process           12
Hello from process            6
Hello from process            0
Hello from process            4
Hello from process            3
Hello from process            7
Hello from process           14
Hello from process            8
Hello from process            1
Hello from process            9
Hello from process           10
Hello from process           11
Hello from process           13
Hello from process           15

<path>bin/mpirun --machinefile mpihosts.dat -np 16 -mca orte_rsh_agent 
/usr/bin/rsh./test_setup
bloscel@f8312's password:

I didn't notice anything about this in the FAQ except that orte_rsh_agent is 
newer than plm_rsh_agent.  Did I miss some critical piece of information?  Why 
do these options behave differently?

Thanks
