I have a similar situation.  I put a .rhosts file in my home directory
like this:

For host1 I have:
host2 username2

For host2 I have
host1 username1

Then to rcp a file from host1 to host2 while logged into host1

rcp file host2.username2:file

and to rcp from host2 to host1 while logged into host1

rcp host2.username2:file file

Of course you should remember to remove the .rhosts files when you
no longer need them :-).
