[torqueusers] Queue to node mapping with TORQUE only

[Davide Cesari]

HI,
	I have Torque 2.1.10 (shipped with Fedora 8) without Maui/Moad and I 
noticed by trial-and-error that, in my case, 
"resources_default.neednodes" requires a node name, not a node property 
as specified in the documentation, maybe something has changed in more 
recent versions of Torque!?
	Davide
