------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   *  Make remote testing easier and less error prone (provide shell scripts for rmiregistry or do not use RMI at all) -- OliverRossmueller 2003-01-06
     *  The very first thing we should do is to update the jmeter-server scripts to set the classpath and start rmiregistry before starting jmeter.  -- ScottEade 2003-01-07
   *  Need a solution for tunneling RMI through a firewall (publicly available solutions exist). -- ScottEade 2003-01-05
-  *  Option to specify the port to be allocated by rmi. -- ScottEade 2003-01-05 ''I just can't understand any situation where running JMeter remotely through a firewall is necessary or desirable.  I can only think that people who insist on being able to do this have a fundamental misunderstanding of what a remote JMeter "server" is for'' - MikeStover)

I can only think that people who insist on being able to do this have a fundamental misunderstanding of what a remote JMeter "server" is for'' - MikeStover '' Situation: I want to run the jmeter GUI from my desktop in our local network, but test an internal service in our data center. The remote jmeter slaves and our server need to be in the data center network to simulate real usage (The users of this service are internal). If I ran the tests from my local network there would be extra latency and it would not give me realistic numbers. - MikeDeeks'')
   *  The ability to easily configure a set of remote testing hosts with varying parameters (number of threads to cater for testing hosts of varying capacity, counter values to handle things like ensuring user identifiers are unique across all test hosts) so that it is easier to initiate distributed testing from multiple remote hosts.  -- ScottEade 2003-01-07 
     *  Ensure relevant items can be set using variables.
     *  Allow parameters to be specified on a per server basis (much like User Parameters), perhaps these would replace the User Defined Variables on the Test Plan element.
