Just to give you some more information on this.  I am using the
cold_start tools for this.  My main config file looks like:

<<< Snip

MASTER_ADDRESS_FILE = $(EXECUTE)/.master_address
STARTD_ADDRESS_FILE = $(EXECUTE)/.startd_address
SCHEDD_ADDRESS_FILE = $(EXECUTE)/.schedd_address
CREDD_ADDRESS_FILE  = $(EXECUTE)/.credd_address

<<<

and EXECUTE is set in condor_config.local_install as:

EXECUTE = /cs/sandbox/student/rgarver/condor_install/conf.snoopy/execute

This directory does exist and has in the past yielded a .master_address
and .schedd_address and in fact does produce one when I start a single
personal condor locally using the same sets of files and binaries.  I am
executing this over ssh with all of files for condor pre-staged, that
seems to be the only difference.  As I said above, the .master_address
at least (.schedd_address may also) makes a brief appearance and then
disappears.  This is not mentioned at all in any of the logs.  The whole
system continues working properly however.  Without these files shutdown
becomes very messy. 

I would appreciate any suggestions on how I might continue to debug this
and resolve the issue, Thanks.
