First, make sure you don't have iptables on your F12 box blocking access to port 9618 (Collector's port).

Then, you should check your CollectorLog on the F12 box to see if the Collecot is PERMISSION DENIED'ing updates from the execute nodes. You should also check your execute nodes and make sure their COLELCTOR_HOST is point at the F12 box. You can see where the Startd is trying to advertise by looking in the StartLog.
