The problem is, I can either set rsh to allow transfers without a password, or it won't let me transfer files at all.
I've used rsync with the ssh 'blowfish' option on slow processors (older sparcs, slower pentiums) with good success.
Tried that, not good enough. Too bad ssh doesn't have a plain-text "encryption" option. :-)
I've found a document saying that the rsh protocol is designed so that the only "authentication" method is .rhosts It cannot authenticate with a password, by design.
Back to the drawing board. :-/
