I'm not sure if you already got an answer to this yet, but anyway, it's
because rlog is seeing the -rXXXX as a flag. One way round this is to put the
path to the file starting with a dash;
eg
/router/bin/rlog /path/to/-rEFR-00000004147
or (assuming it is in cwd)
/router/bin/rlog ./-rEFR-00000004147
Hope this helps,
