Three things

1) I strongly suggest you do not run a schedd on the negotiation machine.
2) I VERY strongly suggest you don't run a startd on the negotiation machine

3) you need to define DAEMON_LIST 

##--------------------------------------------------------------------
##  condor_master
##--------------------------------------------------------------------
##  Daemons you want the master to keep running for you:
DAEMON_LIST = MASTER, NEGOTIATOR, COLLECTOR

in your config somewhere to make this work

Note that the master daemon is nothing special to the central manager,
it is simply the controlling daemon which starts all the others as
configured and performs some machine specific checks.
