Hello,
How can we stop the nrpe client service in a linux Red Hat server?
The only way to disable it is from /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe and restart xinetd ?
Thank you

Yes, normally NRPE is run via xinetd. You can stop xinetd or you can edit /etc/xinetd.d/nrpe and change "disable=no" to "disable=yes" and restart xinetd. It won't run at that point, but the rest of xinetd services will.
