This looks like the DRb server itself tries to connect to the DRb server - normally aaf should detect when it is running *in* the DRb server, but sometimes this doesn't seem to work. Do you use the latest aaf (0.4.1)? There have been some fixes in this area since 0.4.0. Please have a look in your development log, watch out for a line starting with 'Asked for a remote server'.
