As of condor_glidein in Condor 6.7.1, you only need Condor-G to be 
functional on the submitting machine.  Since Condor-G has the necessary 
Globus support compiled into it, you don't necessarily need to install 
Globus separately.  However, you will need a valid grid proxy 
certificate (e.g. created by Globus utility grid-proxy-init) and you 
will need /etc/grid-security to be set up, so if you don't know how to 
achieve both of those without doing a Globus installation, I recommend 
getting Globus installed.

Also as of condor_glidein in Condor 6.7.1, you do not need to be 
registered for access to the University of Wisconsin Condor gridftp 
server.  Even if you are operating in a version prior to 6.7.1, you can 
copy the glidein tarballs to your own gridftp server.  See information here:
