Unable to execute rsh command

Question:

I am running AIX 3.2.4.  I am receiving an error message 'a file 
or directory in path name does not exist' when trying to execute 
the following:

  \# rsh \ \

  \# rsh \  (without a command to execute) works fine.

Response:

We were able to determine that the cause of the problem was an incorrect
(invalid filename) or missing (blank) 'initial program' for the
user within the /etc/passwd file.

In this case, the entry for initial program was '/bin/ksh' was added
and this solved the problem.  You can also change this via SMIT and
change the user's characteristics.
