RE: Distributed testing
Thanks Alan for your advice about testing remotely.
What you suggest may make it possible to remotely test one jmeter instance but I guess it won't help if my aim is to run distributed testing on multiple slave machines.

Subject: RE: Distributed testing
Actually I have done a fair amount of remote testing from a PC in my
home. I VPN into work where we have a Unix machine that is the remote
tester. The remote tester machine (running jmeter) is then used to test
websites at work that aren't on the same subnet. The tricky part of
this setup is that the remote test machine cannot find my PC to provide
back test results unless I expressly give it the virtual work IP that my
PC is using when VPN'd into the work network. The way to specify this
to specify the Djava.rmi.server.hostname parameter in the final line of
the jmeter.bat file on my PC. Here is the final line of my file. When
I want to do remote testing over the VPN, I replace the XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
with the IP that my PC is using on the work network when it is connected
via the VPN. Unfortunately, each time I VPN into work I end up with a
different IP on the work network, so I have to manually update this file
every day that I do remote testing.
%JM_START% %JM_LAUNCH% -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
%JVM_ARGS% %ARGS% -jar "%JMETER_BIN%ApacheJMeter.jar"
%JMETER_CMD_LINE_ARGS%

Your assumption is correct

I assume that it is impossible to do remote testing with JMeter unless
all machines are on the same subnet.
Could somebody please confirm?

Unless I misunderstand Alan's mail, the property is defined on the
slave machine.
If you always use the same client IP address, then you could just put
the property definition in the system.properties file on each slave
(i.e. server).
