Ah, OK.

Is there a NegotiatorLog created at all?  If so, look at it to see what it's 
complaining about; send a snippet along if you can't identify the problem.  
You probably want to turn on D_FULLDEBUG in the NEGOTIATOR_DEBUG macro.

If not, let's try a couple more things:

1. Turn on D_FULLDEBUG in the MASTER_DEBUG macro and restart the master.  Does 
this provide any more clues?

2. run: condor_config_val NEGOTIATOR
Verify that the executable it points at is correct.

3. Run the negotiator directly: `condor_config_val NEGOTIATOR` -t -f 
It should print some output something like this:

You can hit CTRL-C to kill it once it starts.

I'm not sure what you mean here, but NFS sharing shouldn't be a problem unless 
you're doing something really weird or have set type of setup problem.

Let's see if any of the above helps
