Figured this one out finally. Some background first: The system in question is running the ISPManager control panel is and is my shared hosting platform. I mention that because apparently during the installation of ISPManager there are repos added to the repo list by the ISPManager installer and here's where it gets squirrelly.
One repo's definitions interfere with another's. If I disabled the epel repo I was able to install the nrpe package just fine. With the epel repo enabled I'd see nrpe listed as available but yum couldn't load it. The actual package to load (which didn't show in the available list before) is nagios-nrpe-server. wierd.. works now though.. > > -- Peter L.
