Does your check_nrpe command{} definition on the nagios box pass the  
args  the the check_nrpe program? Look for something like --

define command {
	command_name check_nrpe
	command_line $USER1$/check_nrpe (... some arguments here ...) -c  
$ARG1$ -a $ARG2$ $ARG3$
}

You might want to read http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/macros.html 
, Example 2.
