What's the best way to monitor whether rsh/rcp commands are being used? I would like to verify no one is using them before I disable them in favor of ssh.

You could run find on your system for .rhost files. But another way would be to turn on system auditing (/usr/sbin/audit start). And then use the auditpr command to review the events on the system. You may need to tweak your /etc/default/audit/config file first though, in order to pick up such events.
I would definitely get on ssh as soon as possible though. Too many holes in r commands.
