I gave your suggestion a try. I made an entry in /etc/hosts that resolves to 0.0.0.0 then set that name in master and slaves. (I am running single node for now.). The upshot is port 9997 does not appear as listening at all. If I change back to localhost, then it appears again. My guess is the tablet server only starts when it's port is localhost.
Am I using Accumulo correctly? Is it not designed to be accessed remotely?
