Thanks, the output from condor_q looking at one job is:

This is interesting. To me it seems to indicate that the job is not
running because the client (60.7) is rejecting it. I'll need to look more
closely at the client config I think. However, having just run the command
again, I now get:

  ws-60-7         Failed rank condition: MY.Rank > MY.CurrentRank

No, we don't have to wait long. From starting condor up I would say we
would wait between 5 and 10 minutes for the job to become 'noticed' by the
remote server. However, in our setup we did reduce some of the timers, and
remove some of the wait conditions, because our linux clients are purely
processing clients. All keyboard, mouse, usb etc etc input devices have
been disabled. They can talk to the local network but other than that they
do nothing but run condor jobs. As such we don't want jobs waiting in a
queue.
