Is your /etc/hosts correct? Does it have an entry for beta.jokefire.com
What if you replace beta.jokefire.com with the ip address, can you connect?
Can you telnet to beta.jokefire.com port 9160?
Look in the system log and see if you have a log entry like
INFO [main] ???? CassandraDaemon.java (line 124) Binding thrift service to
/beta.jokefire.com:9160
There could be many reasons for this...
Best,
