[Mauiusers] nodeaccess policy - does it work on a job by job bases?

[Steve Young]

Looking at the docs (http://www.clusterresources.com/products/maui/docs/13.3rmextensions.shtml#NACCESSPOLICY 
) from the page you gave..... It shows a colon between arguments  
naccesspolicy and singlejob. So, naccesspolicy:singlejob should be  
what your trying. Did you try that?
