That's strange! I've commented out the relevant line in /etc/hosts on
the client, but I can't see how that would have adversely affected
networking.

Interesting. Still not sure how a mapping for 127.0.1.1 would mess
things up... then again, I don't know how Java gets the host name.

Client is firewalled from inbound traffic, server is not firewalled.

Ok, I noticed the server was trying to connect *back* to the client on
a high TCP port. I opened this port and now I can run JMeter tests
remotely. Does it make sense that the server needs a direct connection
back to the client? I don't remember reading about this in the JMeter
user manual.
