The underlying system calls used by the rsh, rcp, rexec applications have been removed from the Vista winsock DLLs, eventually. Note that these calls are inherently unsecure and have been deprecated for a long time, not only on Windows, but also in the POSIX world. Consider using ssh, scp and sftp from the OpenSSH package instead.
