i accidentally edited this post instead of creating a new one.
I was asking for nrpe un-installation steps to start fresh after registering.
Thanks.

There isn't too much to do, but it will need to be done manually:
1) remove these lines from /etc/services
# Nagios services
nrpe 5666/tcp
nsca 5667/tcp
ndo2db 5668/tcp
2) Remove /usr/local/nagios
rm -rf /usr/local/nagios
3) Remove the nrpe and nsca files from /etc/xinetd.d
rm /etc/xinetd.d/nsca
rm /etc/xinetd.d/nrdp
4) Remove lines from /etc/sudoers regarding nagios

I have an update. This box is not a regular RHEL. It is netezza and so I will not be able to register it in the Red Hat Network. I worked with IBM support to try to get this registered but it didnt work/isn't allowed. Do you have any other suggestions?

OK, if we give you a list of packages or equivilents to install, can you get them on your particular platform?

I should have access to do that.

As the nrpe installer builds itself you will need some components that can be removed later. It certainly is possible that you will need additional dependencies as well.
Needed for install:
autoconf gcc glibc make
Needed throughout use:
libmcrypt-devel openssl-devel sudo sysstat xinetd bc
