Those two issues are the cause of your wrong setting of
FAI_LOGPROTO. But since you are using rsh, I gues you are using an old
FAI version. The new version have ssh enabled by default (in fai.conf:
FAI_LOGPROTO=ssh)
Check your settings and call fai-setup again, which should setup the
ssh keys, so your root account can save the log files onto your
install server without asking for the passeord.
