Make a new host check command.  Then define that for the hosts you  
want.  It seems nrpe is working on your systems so just use a simple  
check_nrpe command your host check on those hosts.

define command{
	command_name	new_host_check_cmd
	command_line	$USER1$/check_nrpe -H $HOSTADDRESS$
    	}


define host{
<snip>
	check_command	new_host_check_cmd
<snip>
}
