This piece of cut'n paste text should have been followed by

"Here's the 'grep nrpe syslog-file' output"

but, strangely enough, it isn't.

The message from check_nrpe is fairly obvious. Don't ask questions to a 
free support forum without at least trying for half a minute of to fix 
the problem yourself. This particular one requires the brain-capacity of

do you good as an exercise.
