Thanks for the replies, guys.     I've spent about 12 hours on this so
far, and I'm still totally stumped, though, could anyone take a quick
look at this and see if they have any other ideas?

- I reverted my FreeBSD 5.3 back to the default GENERIC kernel.  No change.
- I completely shut off all firewalls all around.  No change.
- I tried newest stable-CVS build of Ruby.   No change.

Here are my results with the EXACT SAME client.rb and server.rb
scripts all running the newest stable Ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) on
different computers, all with no firewall, and all (except Linux)
right next to eachother on the same 192.168.0.* subnet

DRb TESTS:

CLIENT   SERVER   SUCCESS?
Mac           Mac         YES!
FreeBSD   Mac         no
Mac           FreeBSD  no
FreeBSD   FreeBSD   no
OpenBSD Linux     YES
Mac           Linux     YES
FreeBSD   Linux     YES
FreeBSD   OpenBSD  YES

In other words:
If Linux is the server, ALL work.
If OpenBSD is the server, ALL work.
If Mac is the server, MAC works.
If FreeBSD is the server, NONE work.


I've got it printing all these little "I'm here" statements, so I know
exactly where it dies.

DRb server returns a reference to an object where class = "Logger" and
object_id = 67897744.
Client receives an object where class = "DRb::DRbObject" and object_id
is 364316.

It gets as far as saying it received the Object-reference back, and
can call local/generic kernel methods on it like .class and .object_id

But when I try to call any remote methods on the Object-reference, it
waits for a few minutes, then gives this error:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:724:in `open': druby://server:8787
#<Errno::ETIMEDOUT: Operation timed out - connect(2)> (DRb::DRbConnError)

(All platforms die at that exact same line.  Same error.)

Could it be that a remote-method called on a DRbUndumped
object-reference sends a different kind of TCP/IP packet than all the
other successful DRb calls up to that point?

Can anyone think of anything else it might be?

I'm not just hobbying with this.  I really need to use DRb for work.
Thanks!
