I had a similar issue once.  It turned out to be a change I made me
ipchains rules.  Check both your client and server tcp/ip configs and
any firewalling you may have setup.  If you're running ipchains/iptables
or anything similar, try flushing all of the rules.  Make sure tcp/ip is
not misconfigured, like an incorrect subnet mask.  Once you've gone over
it all, try restarting xinetd, assuming you setup nrpe to be run from
xinetd.
