aining that one away :(
But in the meantime Grag Thain suggested a much simpler method using Chirp that does not require any additional information in the submit file. (You need 6.8.0 to get it working.)And to be running java or C by the looks of things - anyone written an implementation of the protocol in .net?
Note that condor ships with a wrapper executable called condor_chirp which you can just run from the job that can read or write these attributes.
