I don’t know, DRb is a peer-to-peer protocol more than a client-
server protocol. You can construct a DRb proxy server easily, but if
the remote endpoint needs to connect back to you it may be unable to,
and wouldn’t work.

You can also tunnel DRb via SSH…

which you can use on port 80. I have heard from a student - but a bright
one

  • though that some evil proxies will detect that kind of trickery.
    Worth a try of course.
