I have a Windows 2000 kernel, and I haven't been able to figure out the 
rsh-kernel starting either, but I have succeeded to use remote clients launching 
both ends manually with:

mathkernel options:
-mathlink -LinkMode Listen -LinkProtocol TCP -LinkName port@machine

and client
-mathlink -LinkMode Connect -LinkProtocol TCP -LinkName port@machine
