It's not clear why you're using check_nrpe for these two services...
that's probably not what you want to do.
Check_ssh and check_ping should be run on the Nagios server itself. And,
as another member pointed out, you've got the command line options
messed up for both service checks:
Usage: check_ping -H <host_address> -w <wrta>,<wpl>% -c
<crta>,<cpl>% [-p packets] [-t timeout] [-4|-6]
Usage: check_ssh [-46] [-t <timeout>] [-r <remote version>] [-p
<port>] <host>
