I have so far managed to mine two blocks.  I'm confused because I thought that when I mined a block I was supposed to collect transaction fees too, but I only collected the 50BTC each.

Do I have to do something special to collect fees?  Do I have to do something to my firewall?  How many BTC should I expect in fees with each published block?

You get them automatically. In those blocks, there must not have been any fees.
