This is an issue with the binary installation - we include that library 
but the LD_LIBRARY_PATH needs to pick it up.  The file
  $SYSLOCAL/RSYNC.ME
needs to be present and then the file $AIPS_ROOT/AIPSPATH.{CSH,SH} 
depending on your shell will set the library path.  The binary install 
should make that file.  Is it possible that there is some confusion 
about what $SYSLOCAL is?  It should be $TST/$ARCH/SYSTEM/$SITE but if 
your computer has a different $SITE then this may get confused.

cd $AIPS_ROOT
. LOGIN.SH   for bash shells
source LOGIN.CSH     for csh, tcsh, etc
echo $ARCH
echo $SYSLOCAL
echo $SITE
