host port setting

[Alex Dehaini]

I will advice you configure the nrpe daemon on the remote host to listen on
which ever port you choose. After that, restart nagios on the monitoring
host and use the plugin in the libexec directory to see if you can still
talk to the remote server.

To answer your question, I do not know of any directive to change the port
number for nrpe on nagios.

Perhaps it is harded coded in the plugin, perhaps not, you will only know
after testing it.
