Need Help on RPC

Hi all, 
	I have recently tried running a short program on rpc. The client 
program sends request to remote host for system time, and the server 
routine (on the remote host) simply reads the system time and outputs it. 
However, I kept getting the message "couldn't set time of day: not owner" 
when the program was executed. Does anybody have any idea what is the cause? 
And how I can solve it? Any advice is much appreciated. 

Thanks.

Make sure that the server is running it as the person who owns it on 
the client end.  That sounds like the problem.  Please let us know what
the final problem is.

The problem has been solved by renaming the client program. It used to be
called "rdate" and the host site seems to have interpreted it as a 
time set command.
