Unfortunately I'm not sure how to help you there. I don't have any HPUX machines to test against. Have you seen this package for HPUX? I haven't tried it but it's what came up when I search for "hpux nrpe".

i did noticed that, but i wasn't sure if could trust a binary from a unknown source due to security policies in my data center...i was hoping to compile my own copy for HPUX... as i did for a bunch Red Hat servers, which that compiled as advertise with no problems............ thanks for your help, i appreciate it.

I had this too !
I sort it out disabling the ssl feature : ./config --disable-ssl
