Looking at the source for the looking-glass though it doesn't use the username option for rsh command. When useing the cisco command below don't you have to use the rsh username?
ip rcmd remote-host www 206.183.224.12 nobody
I changed the ip of the $ROUTER in lg.pl to "www\@ipaddress.of.router" instead of "ipaddress.of.router" which seems to work. I kept getting Permission Denied without it.
You need to make sure that in 'ip rcmd' that you have local-username defined to something that there is a 'username xxx' entry on the cisco for. In other words, if you have (sorry syntax is probably not correct): ip rcmd remote-host joebob lookingglass.yourcompany.com daemon enable you have to have a 'username joebob' entry on the cisco as well. local-username means "apply the permissions of local-username when this rsh matches" and remote-username is the userid of whatever your cgi-bin runs as.. if your web server is setuid "daemon" and cgi-bins are daemon, it will only work if you have 'daemon' as a remote-username in the ip rcmd command.
