Re: [Condor-users] newbie negotiator error

[Tom Melendez <tom@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Anyone got any suggestions?  I'm stumped.  I'm running condor 7.2.4,
which looks old, but is considered stable.  The bugs fixed in 7.2.5
don't seem to apply to my situation.

My central manager machine is listening on these ports:
