apart from that, does one really need "rcp" at all ? i recommend to delete as 
much as possible your setuid-apps, use jails for your services and read security-howtos
and if you really think your box is cracked, reinstall from scratch (and you'll sleep
better at night :)

when it comes to rootkits, try also : rkhunter from http://www.rootkit.nl

HTH,GL!
