I'd hazard a guess that when you exec you throw away the arguments to
the shell (which are probably -c 'arguments to rsh' or something like
that.

I'd just wait for rc to appear in /etc/shells. Many failed attempts to
get rc to do the right thing when exec-ed out of a .cshrc lead me to
write:

    An alternative method is to invoke rc from your .profile file or
    its equivalent, but this has so many drawbacks that I cannot
    recommend it.

in the rc FAQ (ftp://oldp.nmsu.edu/pub/alan/rc/rc-faq).

Regards, and welcome on board,

Alan
