The canned response is that you probably have a firewall up on one or 
both of the machines, except you can run condor_status from the second 
machine and see the first.

It is possible that the default security configuration in Condor is 
slowing you down. A good deal of the basic setup is described in -

It is primarily for Linux, but should give you a good idea of how to get 
started.

For instance, you might check the processes running on the secondary 
machine, or see if you have PERMISSION DENIED messages in the COLLECTOR_LOG.

Best,
