You need check_nrpe on your nagios box,
nrpe configured (edit nrpe.cfg  you probably need to edit "allowed_host" 
and the check commands at the end)
Set up the check commands in the nrpe.cfg on every remote host, install 
the plugins on the remote hosts (do not copy them from the nagios box 
unless you run exactly the same software configuration).
Start nrpe on the remote host try (from the nagios box) ./check_nrpe -H 
YourRemoteServer.

Output should be
NRPE v2.0

If you get the: great! If not: read the readme included in the NRPE 
package, it's a good start.

If you have the nrpe connection
./check_nrpe -H YourRemoteServer -c ACheckCommandInTheNrpe.CFGOnRemoteHost
like:
./check_nrpe -H 192.168.0.12 -c check_disk

setup the service with check_nrpe!check_disk
