Are you trying to update "check_nrpe" on the Nagios XI server or the plugins on the remote machine? If you want to update check_nrpe, you will have to download the latest version and recompile.

Yes the XI server only uses check_nrpe. You would need to go through re-compiling the plugins package for the latest version. Or recompiling check_nrpe itself, please follow this link and re-compile NRPE:
