     My problem was the VMS UCX proxy definition. Now I used quotes and
     lowercase to specify the remote-user in UCX add proxy command. The
     remote command is running ok. Before this, I used lowercase but I
     didn't use quotes and UCX assumed UPERCASE to define the remote-user.
     This are the little/bigs details.
     
     Other importants conclusions:
     
       
     * I removed vms-host from .rhost and from /etc/hosts.equiv files. This
     was not necesary to get access from unix to vms.
     
     * if the unix-user is not the same in vms machine then I have to use
     the unix rsh command with -l option :
     
     # rsh -l <vms-user> <vms-node> <vms command>
     
     
     Thanks to all of you.
