mmbnj> Did you define attr_reader as each of a server and a client?
I can't require my object (class) declarations on the serverside, all
objects are stored in relational DB and server allows to store objects
of any class. So server requires only drb/drb.
mmbnj> Which of a server and a client is that an error comes out?
Error comes out on the clientside, when object is unmarshalized and
received by client. It exists, but doesn't respond to :name. But as I
told before it responds to :name if I define method 'name' to access
instance variable (not reader). This seems strange to me.
