Re: [Condor-users] Condor 6.8.3 on Windows

[Andrew Cunningham <andrewc@xxxxxxx>]

I'll answer my own question.
After much gnashing of teeth,wailing and mailing list searching the  
problem was that the machines that would not function on CONDOR did  
not have entries in the DNS for our 192.168.0.X private LAN. We are  
running a WINS server ( part of OS X Server 10.3.9) so the Windows  
machines can quite happily see other on the Windows domain, and ping  
each other by name and so on, but they do NOT necessarily have  
entries in the local BIND DNS server.

I will tell you that was darn hard to figure out as nothing condor  
puts in its log files that I could see gives a direct clue to this  
problem.
