Hi, BTW your original message contained characters from character sets
that my
mail reader couldn't cope with. I don't know what this group's policy
is,
but personally I prefer ascii text for such newsgroups.

FLOCK_TO and FLOCK_FROM need setting up on the participating central
nodes
(one on each for one way, both for 2 way). You will also need to ensure
that all 
potential execute nodes can see all potential submit nodes (and vice
versa), i.e.
no NATs or firewalls getting in the way. You may also have to adjust
your 
HOSTALLOW settings.

Each submitting node has its own queue.
condor_q -global
lists jobs on all queues
(including, if I remember rightly, queues on submit nodes on a flocked
pool)

I hope this helps a little
