rsh problem

I tried to execute by rsh a script, but I did not succeed.
You can execute only commnads (not scripts) by rsh or there are some other restrictions?!?

Code:
root@a1 #pwd
/
root@a1 #rsh a2 monitor
ksh: monitor:  not found

On the other hand:

Code:
root@a1 #rsh a2
root@a2 #pwd
/
root@a2 #ls monitor
-rwxr--r--  .....  monitor
root@a2 #monitor
Monitoring started ....
......
Monitoring done.

If this is not possible then how can I run a script on a1 such that the script executes at some time another script on the remote host a2 and then returns to run on a1?

NAME
rcp -- copy file to and from remote machines SYNOPSIS
rcp [-45FKpxz] [-P port] file1 file2 rcp [-45FKprxz] [-P port] file... directory DESCRIPTION
rcp copies files between machines. Each file argument is either a remote file name of the form ``rname@rhost:path'' or a local file (contain- ing no colon or with a slash before the first colon). Supported options: -4, -5, -K, -F, -x, -z These options are passed on to rsh(1). -P port This will pass the option -p port to rsh(1). -p Preserve file permissions. -r Copy source directories recursively. DIAGNOSTICS
rcp is implemented as a protocol on top of rsh(1), and thus requires a working rsh. If you intend to use Kerberos authentication, rsh needs to be Kerberos aware, else you may see more or less strange errors, such as "login incorrect", or "lost connection". HISTORY
The rcp utility first appeared in 4.2BSD. This version is derived from 4.3BSD-Reno. HEIMDAL
