Hi Marc,
Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I have the correct IP. Also I already have debugging turned on in nrpe.cfg. I have other clients connecting just fine. I just restarted nrpe and I got this message:
Dec 12 09:18:22 nagiosclient svc.startd[7]: [ID 748625 daemon.error] network/cswnrpe:default failed repeatedly
Dec 12 09:19:25 nagiosclient nrpe[643]: [ID 601491 daemon.notice] Starting up daemon
Dec 12 09:19:25 nagiosclient nrpe[643]: [ID 627629 daemon.notice] Warning: Daemon is configured to accept command arguments from clients!
Dec 12 09:19:42 nagiosclient nrpe[649]: [ID 381997 daemon.error] Host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is not allowed to talk to us!
We're not using IPV6, so I guess that's not a problem. Other thoughts?

The code around this error is very straightforward and looks like a
simple address match. Are you sure you have the correct IP and nrpe
has been restarted? Are you using IPV6 locally?
In any event, putting nrpe into debug mode and watching /var/log/
messages should be informative.
