I have a lot to learn about RMI, but after a little bit of digging I think that connecting directly to the client is only necessary if you want to do make RMI calls *from* the server. I gather JMeter does. > If you can suggest where best to put this info in the JMeter docs - > i.e. where you would go looking for it - I'll add it. Remote Testing -> Tips (section 15.2 in the v2.3.2 user's manual) would be a good place. Thank you!
