    I found instructions for doing it for Xterm and aterm here:

    http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Linux_Colors_in_Aterm/rxvt

    From those I was able to get brighter colors by adding:

    rxvt*background:  #000000 rxvt*foreground:  #7f7f7f rxvt*color0:      #000000 rxvt*color1:      #9e1828 rxvt*color2:      #aece92 rxvt*color3:      #968a38 rxvt*color4:      #414171 rxvt*color5:      #963c59 rxvt*color6:      #418179 rxvt*color7:      #bebebe rxvt*color8:      #666666 rxvt*color9:      #cf6171 rxvt*color10:     #c5f779 rxvt*color11:     #fff796 rxvt*color12:     #4186be rxvt*color13:     #cf9ebe rxvt*color14:     #71bebe rxvt*color15:     #ffffff 

    to the bottom of my ~/.Xdefaults file
