PLugin NRPE

[John R. Daily]

The NRPE plugin will encrypt the communications with NRPE by default.

To be careful, I would recommend running NRPE under xinetd to  
leverage tcpwrappers and configure the Nagios server(s) that can  
communicate with NRPE.  You may also wish to change the NRPE port for  
obscurity.

Also leave dont_blame_nrpe set to 0 whenever possible in the NRPE  
configuration.
