I tried to perform that, but apparently that was not successful.  I 
currently have:

check_nrpe_options!check_disk!30% 10% /  (in the services file)

where checkcommands defines the

define  command {
        command_name    check_nrpe_options
        command_line    $USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c $ARG1$ -a 
$ARG2$
        }
I believe that this is where the problem lies.  The command check_disk 
is defined in the nrpe.cfg as:

command[check_disk]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_disk -w $ARG1$ -c 
$ARG2$ -p $ARG3$

I think that the checkcommands format is not permitting the use of three 
ARGS for the remote server.  What should the checkcommands format be?
