Well, tcsh sets 'REMOTEHOST' if that is an option.  I recall having a 
problem with tcsh that forced me back to sh which needs getpeer.
I think the tcsh issue was related to it not setting up the path
correctly.  E.g. 'rsh host command' wouldn't find command in $HOME/bin
which was added to the path in .cshrc/.login, or /etc/csh.*.
