I've just checked with the lsuser command and cannot see any obvious restrictions on the account.

Code:
rsh -v machine /bin/date
rsh -vv machine /bin/date
rsh -vvv machine /bin/date

That's assuming your version of rsh supports -v option.

From man page: -v Verbose mode. Causes ssh to print debugging messages about its progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, authentication, and configuration problems. Multiple -v options increase the verbosity. The maximum is 3.

we are running rsh not ssh, the -v flag does not work with rsh

That was my concern, that your rsh version did not have that flag.
Code:
$ rsh -V
OpenSSH_6.0p1 Debian-3ubuntu1, OpenSSL 1.0.1c 10 May 2012

Code:
$ rsh -v 192.168.02 date
OpenSSH_6.0p1 Debian-3ubuntu1, OpenSSL 1.0.1c 10 May 2012
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to 192.168.02 [192.168.0.2] port 22.
......... Many lines of diagnostic information
Transferred: sent 2712, received 2272 bytes, in 0.2 seconds

It seems very useful. Maybe your rsh has some debugging option? I have no idea.
