Yes, but... this is a network problem. The server runs and the fact that
you cannot reach is it may be due to proxies, routers, firewalls whatever.

try something like this:

rexec/with [ function-call arguments ] tcp://ip:port

if that does not work it probably is a network config thing.
rexec is a lowlevel rugby call that directly calls and only fails when the
network fails (due to permissions, firewalls whatever).

note that argumets must be values, so the block must contain values or be
reduced like:

rexec/with reduce [ 'function-call arguments] tcp://ip-address:port
