Well problem solved ... writing this so it is in the list archives.
It turns out the the machine name was listed twice in /etc/hosts, first as
the loopack and second under it's eth0 address. Someone smarter than me
well need to explain this, but rsh and ssh picked the eth0 address, so I
was able to connect to the remote machine, but the pvmd was using the
loopback address.
Thank you for all your suggestions.
cheers,
Jim Parker
