That looks a bit different than what I use for my NFS RPC checks. Here's
mine:

define command {
        command_name    check_rpc_nfs
        command_line    $USER1$/check_rpc -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C nfs -t
}

Are you sure your syntax is correct?  Have you looked at a "check_rpc
-h" to verify you're passing the parameters correctly (you may have
mentioned something earlier, but I don't have access to mail older than
a day or so right now)?
