What you will need on BackgrounDRb server is the backgroundrb.yml file and your rails application ( because you want access to your rails environment in BackgrounDRB workers ). You won't need to run any mongrels on that machine and on machines running mongrels you can just point ip of BackgrounDRB server in backgroundrb.yml file and it should suffice.
