Ok, a similar think happened to me - I had backed up Mathematica onto other
media (as well as all my other programs) then did a build disk on my hard
drive.  After copying things back on, the above symptoms happened.  Solution:
do a custom-reinstall of mathematica, and it will copy the mathremote and
mathexe (I think these are the files) back into your path.  Regular install
wouldn't work, because it said mathematica was already there.

Anyways, I can't be more specific, since I don't have my NeXT in front of
me - hope this helps.
