Domain Controller Event IDs to the Collector Server

Hi all,  I am working with the following link: 

http://blogs.technet.com/b/mspfe/archive/2011/11/22/setting_2d00_up_2d00_security_2d00_event_2d00_log_2d00_subscriptions_2d00_with_2d00_windows_2d00_server_2d00_20032008.aspx

I want to be able to send Event log data from my DCs to the collector server.  I spun up 2 VM DCs and a Collector VM server in a test domain. All are running server 2008r2.  I configured both DCs to send their Events to the Collector and created a GPO.  What I am noticing is that no events are being forwarded to the Collector and the subscription Status is showing Inactive.
