Hi Marcelo,

To monitor a remote host, you need the check_nrpe plugin on the Nagios 
server (this is built as part of the NRPE package) and on each remote 
host you need the NRPE server and the plugins.

On a side-note, you also need OpenSSL if you want the channel between 
Nagios and the remote hosts to be encrypted.
