Subject: [ruby-talk:22168] Re: dRuby, Linux and ports

hi,
	it works on my machine(s).
What port are you using?
If you want me to try it, email me the code.

Try this: -- i.e. on port 9000 (try sth. > 1024)
1st try it on the same machine (localhost)
then replace localhost by whatever the name(s) are.
server:

require 'drb'
class TestServer
  def doit
    "Hello, Distributed Ruby World"
  end
end
aServerObject = TestServer.new
DRb.start_service('druby://localhost:9000',
  aServerObject)
DRb.thread.join

client:
require 'drb'
DRb.start_service()
obj = DRbObject.new(nil,
  'druby://localhost:9000')
p obj.doit


Ciao,
