This problem could be resolved by setting the uid bit as follows:

# chmod u=rxs /usr/bin/rcp

Note: The "execute" privilege must be applied in order for
the proper "sticky bit" to be set.

or

# chmod 4555 /usr/bin/rcp

Permissions, owner and group for /usr/bin/rcp are as follows:

-r-sr-xr-x 1 root bin 32768 Jul 22 1998 /usr/bin/rcp

Hope this helps

Regards,
