Sorry, both tips did not work - by the way I have used condor for quite some
time now with group nobody and did never experience any problems related to
that.

I found "condor_init" is calling "condor_config_val" and not every dependency
gets resolved:

[root@faepop01 ~]# ldd `which condor_config_val`
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0x00000000)
        libresolv.so.2 => /emul/ia32-linux/lib/tls/libresolv.so.2 (0x55586000)
        libdl.so.2 => /emul/ia32-linux/lib/tls/libdl.so.2 (0x55598000)
        libstdc++.so.5 => /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x5559c000)
        libm.so.6 => /emul/ia32-linux/lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x55656000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 => not found
        libc.so.6 => /emul/ia32-linux/lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x55679000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x55555000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 => not found

There is a library /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 available, but only for 64 bit
mode. Copying from a 32 bit machine to /emul/ia32-linux/lib made condor_init
and the daemons condor_master, condor_schedd, condor_startd running - will
test some more next week.

Thanks,
Andreas
