hi
    The problem is because the arguments sent by win32 pvm ( hoster.exe)  to
do the rsh is not correct.

I fixed it by changing the rsh parameters passed by  hoster.exe to spawn the
remote pvmd.

I changed the "pvmwinrsh.c" under the hoster directory and recompiled the
hoster process (hoster.exe).
