Hi again,

like Marcus just wrote check if you did these steps, regarding the 
documentation(especially restarting the xinetd):
##############
Install the NRPE daemon as a service under xinetd.
make install-xinetd
Edit the /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe file and add the IP address of the 
monitoring server to the only_from directive.
only_from = 127.0.0.1 <nagios_ip_address>
Add the following entry for the NRPE daemon to the /etc/services file.
nrpe 5666/tcp # NRPE
Restart the xinetd service.
service xinetd restart
#############

Kind regards, Dennis
