Hey Ben, Thanks. You were right. I tried a bunch of variations on symbolic names for the machine but none resolved. Last try was pounding in the IP address and that seems to have done the trick (see below). I would not mind figuring out how to refer to this workgroup machine symbolically that will resolve but it's probably a moot point now. On to the next problem! _____________________________________________________________________ Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7600] Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

Try CONDOR_HOST = HPTlaptop (or HPTlaptop.domain.tld if HPTlaptop on its own doesn't resolve)
