I'm not sure exactly what you mean. On the monitor machine, there's
only the blah.cfg file in '/etc/nagios-plugins/config/blah.cfg'. I
didn't even think that this was necessary, since it's really just
running check_nrpe_1arg (which is defined in
/etc/nagios-plugins/config/check_nrpe.cfg) and passing in the name of
the command to the remote host.
On the remote host, it has the "blah" command defined in
/etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg, as such:
command[blah]=/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/blah.pl
So, it should call check_nrpe on the monitoring host, which uses the
nrpe-server to attempt to run the command through the remote host.
Since the command is listed in nrpe.cfg on the remote host, it should
see it there, run the actual perl script listed there, and return the
output.

The command IS defined in /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg on the target machine.
The command is ALSO defined in /etc/nagios-plugins/config/blah.cfg on
the target machine.
Is '/etc/nagios-plugins/config/blah.cfg' linked in your Nrpe commands
config?
Can you run the command via check_nrpe on the local (target) machine?
Only time I saw a command not getting picked up by nrpe was when I had
started nrpe twice!
and as such was only restarting the second one which had not bound to
the interface of course.

I restarted nagios-nrpe-server after adding the command.
I'm calling it from my monitoring server with
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H <hostaddress> -c blah
When I run the perl script myself, it works fine.
Any ideas? All of my other checks for this host work.
