run the same command from the nagios server to see if the nrpe working
between nagios server and client.

on the nagios server, if the nagios is installed at /usr/local/nagios then
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H <ip-of-the-nagios-client> -c
check_users

if you get the output then, it compiled and working fine.
