RE: [Condor-users] Condor on Windows 2003 Server

["John Alberts" <alberts@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Alain,
I figured the firewall configuration was the only problem, but I just
figured I would list everything that I did ... just in case.  Also, if
condor can read the condor_config.local in unix format, then why did I get
install errors with "Couldn't find [COLLECTOR_NAME] in
[condor_config.local]", when [COLLECTOR_NAME] was clearly in
condor_config.local?  The only noticable problem was the file was in unix
format instead of dos format.
Also, even though it *may* work fine with unix format, it's difficult to
directly edit in Windows in that format.

In any case, it all seems to work fine now and this is a really amazing
piece of software.

This is unnecessary. Condor can read the file in either format.

This is unnecessary. Condor does the right thing with the slashes.

It's not incorrect that the .exe is missing: Condor does the right thing 
and finds the proper binary.

I'm glad that you solved your problem though--I think it was just the 
firewall configuration though.
