if there are no machines in condor_status, then there is no place for
your job to run and that's why it will remain idle in the queue.

you need to have a condor_startd running.  it may be as simple as editing
your condor_config and adding 'STARTD' to the DAEMON_LIST parameter.  you
will then need to 'condor_restart -master' to have condor spawn the startd.

if that doesn't help, you may have some other problem - check for the
existence of StartLog in your condor log directory, and if it's there look
at its contents for hints as to what might be wrong.
