Have you run 'condor_q -analyze'? That should be your first step when  
jobs won't run. If it indicates that most/all of your machines are  
rejecting your job because of requirements, or vice versa, you should  
check the requirements expressions of both the job and the machines.

By default on unix, condor assumes you want to transfer job files via a  
shared filesystem, but that you don't have one. Have you configured  
condor to know about NFS:  
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v6.7/ 
3_3Configuration.html#SECTION00435000000000000000

If you haven't, then the FileSystemDomain attribute of the job and  
machine ads will be set to the hostname of the local machine and jobs  
won't match with remote machines.

Another option is to tell condor to transfer job files:  
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v6.7/ 
2_5Submitting_Job.html#SECTION00354000000000000000

All of this filesystem stuff is irrelevant to standard universe, since  
all the I/O calls get sent back to the submit machine to be executed.
