Ok, so you will have to debug that.  Are you e.g. sure that your
remote dir is really writable by the user account you're using for
rsh?  Are you using ntsec?  Did you check your /etc/passwd and
/etc/group files?  Is your .rhosts file correct? Are the permissions
on that file correct (0600)?  Etc., etc.  If nothing else works,
start rsh under strace to look which system call result in the
"permission denied" error.
