	If you can't solve it, as a short term solution try setting
	the 'Submit Host:' prompt to point at some other machine
	so the user at that machine can submit normally.

	The jobid for their jobs will simply be on some other host,
	but they'll still be able to manange their job.

	Hmm, dumping old jobs should free up the jobids..
	are you sure the jobs are actually dumping?

	Try including in an email directly to me the output of
	these commands run on this machine:

If Windows:
rush -lj > togreg.txt
rush -dcatlog >> togreg.txt
dir \rush\var >> togreg.txt
cacls \rush\var\* >> togreg.txt
cacls \rush\var   >> togreg.txt

If Unix:
rush -lj > togreg.txt
rush -dcatlog >> togreg.txt
ls -la /usr/local/rush/var >> togreg.txt
ls -lad /usr/local/rush/var >> togreg.txt

	If windows, it's possible it might be a permission problem
	on one of the files in the rush/var directory. Try running
	the following as administrator:

cacls c:\rush\var   /E /C /G everyone:F
cacls c:\rush\var\* /E /C /G everyone:F

	..or if unix, it might be the perms on the rush or rushd
	executable that got messed up by someone with a runaway 'chown'
	or 'chmod' command:

chown 0:0  /usr/local/rush/bin/{rush,rushd}
chmod 4755 /usr/local/rush/bin/{rush,rushd}

	..then restart the daemon on that machine.

	If you want to just clear out all the jobs, stop the daemon
	and rename out the rush/var/jobs-checkpoint file to something
	else, then start the daemon. Then any jobs should be gone,
	but only do that as the last step.
