Do you remember which rpVT version it was that worked?
Perhaps you can patch the title string R hunts for (in the old rpvt.exe) or adapt it (in the ZTree window title) ...

After reading an amount of time, I found an interesting hint in the rpVT documentation on ZTWiki's rpVT History, header "Version (A-34)", last-but-one paragraph:

If a /zd switch is specified, R will hunt only the specific path\filename of the switch, and no other instances of Z.
If a remote operation is set in a LAN, using the /rm switches, R will not establish
mouse redirection and will always set the 'quit with ZTree' flag, even if not specified in the switches.

But that still does *not* explain IMHO why the current versions of rpVT do not work in a LAN setup...
