Oops... should've backtracked a bit more :-/

I think the reason you're not able to rescue the exception is because 
it is raised in a thread that DRb starts, and thus terminates that 
thread when it occurs. It never propagates to the thread in which you 
have the rescue.

I'll mull over the more general problem a bit more, as I seem to 
remember encountering it on a project I did a few months ago.

HTH,
