Our SP2 system administrator found the source of this problem.
I have modified my .cshrc file in such a way that it prints
some "useful information" such as free disk space etc. 
This output comes also when I do an rsh.
This turns out to be a problem for the PVMe daemon. In the case of rsh,
one has to suppress any output from .cshrc in order for PVMe to work correctly.
