First of all, that (improperly labeled) error is due to the host 
refusing the connection when the client tries to connect (see 
[ruby-talk:80235]). Are you sure that your router is forwarding inbound 
connections on the port you're using to your home PC?

You do need to modify the programs - see:

   http://drbfire.rubyforge.org/classes/DRbFire.html

Specifically the "Basic Usage" section.
