NRPE installation fails since check_nrpe plugin is not found in the libexec directory

[Andy Shellam]

Hi Rahul,

The error it's returning suggests that "check_nrpe" is not in the "src" 
subdirectory of the current directory 
(/usr/local/src/nagios_nodes/downloads/nrpe-2.8/src.)

It looks as if the plugin has not been built.  Do you in fact have 
"check_nrpe" in the above mentioned directory?

What was the final output from "make" ?  I'm guessing it threw an error.
