Need a deep guru to provide enlightenment. ------=_Part_10749_18307957.1129248776728 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Does this make any sense in the context of wanting something I can script remotely against? DRb has a disposition that you have to know what you are calling remotely before you can call it ... And, if you are wanting to pass a remote object into a function, you can't do any duck-type checking because respond_to? is based on DRbObject, not th= e remote object it is to proxy. Anyways, that's the goal of the project, simply to be able to use DRb transparently, completely transparently. I look forward to any further suggestions you have, thanks for what you've provided already. j.
