You can probably use:
http://www.nagiosexchange.org/NRPE.77.0.html?&tx_netnagext_pi1[p_view]=126

... as one resource.

I don't believe that the check_nrpe comes by default.  You need to
build it separately.  You can download RPMs for RedHat at:
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/

You'll notice that there is a nagios-nrpe (what you would install on
the remote machines).

There is a nagios-plugins-nrpe (under nagios-plugins) that you would
install on your Nagios machine.  Pretty much all this RPM does is
install the check_nrpe in your plugins folder.

You might be able to use the SRC RPMs on that site for your SUSE... or
at least modify the  spec file to customize for your situation.

I'm sorry I don't have a quick solution for you, but hopefully the
info will get you started in the right direction.
