[torqueusers] Torque 2.3.4 - Jobs not running

[Wayne Mallett]

G'day all,

I've discovered the problem - had nothing to do with the installation of 
torque onto compute nodes.  Ended up being configuration of queues requiring a 
"properties=..." to be assigned to nodes.  On 18 nodes this assignment was 
correct on the other fifteen I made typos.

Thanks,
Wayne
