Thanks for the tip!  Adding to my $HOME/.cshrc file:

    setenv SSH_CLIENT "$SSH2_CLIENT"

solved the problem.  Perhaps rsync could look for SSH2_CLIENT, as well.


I'm using sh: SSH Secure Shell 3.2.3 (non-commercial version) on sparc-sun-solaris2.6

The ssh docs[1] say I can use .ssh2/environment to set additional environment variables.
I could not get that to work.
