Ok, the -ls switch allows the init script (.profile) to be loaded. But
complains with this:
/dev/ttyp0: Operation not permitted
Also, I am getting the same error as someone who posted earlier about
finger not seeing these shells. ..Even though I compiled rxvt with the
--enable-utmp option and installed it as root:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 94232 May 12 14:39 /usr/local/bin/rxvt
Unfortunately I didn't look too closely at the previous email.. and it's
accidentally deleted.
Did I miss a step here?

p.s. pixmap background for rxvt is great btw!
