Probably better not to do that; the master node has to handle all the
response data load.

I suggest you use independent non-GUI mode on as many nodes as you
need, and combine the CSV output files (just concatenate them).

No.

But each one must use its own RMI port.

The CLASSPATH is ignored when starting JMeter.

Scripts on the master; data files must be on each slave in the same directory.

Nothing; it should all just work unless you have got some network
boxes in the way.
In which case, ask for help from the network admins.

If you are using master/slave config, then all the data is written on
the master anyway.

Distributed testing is a lot harder to get working.
Use multiple independent non-GUI runs as mentioned above.
