Problems Running NRPE Client on an HP-UX works tation

Hi Jason,

The standard that I have been following is the nrpe daemon and the nrpe.cfg
file.
As far as other config files are concerned, should they be copied into the
libexec 
directory or will the nagios directory be sufficient? Also, the files would be 
coming from an x86 machine with Red Hat Linux 7.3 and they would be going onto a
RISC-chip workstation running HP-UX 10.20.

The only thing you need on the client is the plugin, and enough stuff for
nrpe to run.  I also copy over the config files because some of my
home-made plugins access the config files, but your mileage may vary...
