i dont think so,
now needed to set the perms for the tmp dir and then sendjob ran:
xseed1:~/renderout/blendfiles 
orange$ /Volumes/MirroredRAID/share/software/drqueue/bin/sendjob -t blender 
emo_hairanimtest.blend emo_hairanimtest.blend.job 
DrQueue - by Jorge Daza García Blanes

Error sending job to the queue
Error registering BLENDER job from file: emo_hairanimtest.blend.job
xseed1:~/renderout/blendfiles orange$ 

.. dunno what is causing that now
