This is the exhaust vent from a gas fired heating system.
That drip, right at the joint, started a year ago. I'm assuming it's from condensation, and would otherwise drain back into the heater, except for a bad glue joint.
What's the best/easiest way to address this? I'm thinking to just turn the heat off the next few warm days, and layer on some glue at the joint.

Is it glued at the moment? If not, your plan is fine. Turn of the heater, disconnect, glue, reconnect, turn heater back on.
Ideally, though, the pipe would be angled slightly downward towards the outside to prevent the condensation from backing out to the appliance in the first place.
