Is '/etc/nagios-plugins/config/blah.cfg' linked in your Nrpe commands

Can you run the command via check_nrpe on the local (target) machine?

Only time I saw a command not getting picked up by nrpe was when I had
started nrpe twice!
and as such was only restarting the second one which had not bound to the

 I restarted nagios-nrpe-server after adding the command.
