rshd children can't use sockets (they can't get at hostnames)

Folks,
network related commands fail when run as a rshd child process,
but succeed if run from rlogin to the same NT machine.
What is it about the rshd context that causes this behavior?
Is some subsystem not set up by rshd?
Thanks, Mark
