The problem is that you have told it to use olympus -- not zeus.  Now, 
normally that wouldn't be a bad thing because it would simply wait for 
an olympus node to open up in the evening.  The problem right now is 
that somewhere in computer science there is a lab machine booted up 
using Cobra as it's NIS server -- and trying to authenticate using that.

See if changing olympus to zeus fixes your problem.  If you really want 
to wait until the evening and run on olympus cluster machines, you can 
do something like

#PBS -a 2215

That shold start your job at 10:15 pm
