When you run it manually - how do you do it ? check_nrpe -H <host> -c 
check_iptables from the nagios server ? or local on the client ?

If you have not put in return codes how do you expect nagios to know 
what was the exit status of the script ? how will it know if it finished 
running or failed - those are not covered from NRPE but determined in 
the plugin.
