out of curiosity, if you remove the lines you singled out in your first email from your maui.cfg (nodecfg[argo17-1] and classcfg[dedicated]) which you think may be causing the problem, does the system then work? --Joe

I have six queues defined in torque: one route queue called batch and five execution queues (two of the queues are staff/faculty and the other three are only for students). The job is being submitted directly to "dedicated" which is one of the two staff/faculty queues. By the way, my id is in the acl_user entry for the queue dedicated. Here's the script #PBS -N hello_world #PBS -q dedicated <------------ #PBS -l nodes=argo17-1 /home/homes51/mhoma/a.out > are the nodes showing up as available to your queue?
