I solved the problem this way. I turned on snoop to get packets on the nrpe port and saw that there were no packets at that port unless I ran check_nrpe manually, then I noticed that in my commands definitions the path was wrong (I had copied some commands from another installation which had a "libexec" after $USR1$. 

Getting the packets with snoop was very helpful because it told me that the nrpe daemon was running but somehow not executing from nagios.

I'm wondering why nagios didn't complain about "command not found" or something like that though now.

Thanks all for the tips and ideas.
