Snappy installed the DRM mod. When he tries to connect to the GBR DRM server, he gets a timed out message, even where he correctly enters the password quickly.
Any thoughts as to why he is having trouble? I can get connected no problem.

Timeout is 95/100 times a password problem (caps lock on?). The remaining causes seem to be Windows firewall or an unexplainable issue... I had two servers, one Dan could connect to and the other he couldn't. Just Dan, I never found the reason.

I have had that issue trying to connect to Helios's server the last couple DRM races. Go in and flush the dns and see if that works.
Go to the Windows Start menu and type in CMD. This will open up the DOS prompt. In there, type ipconfig /flushdns
If that doesn't work, you can also try releasing and renewing your IP address.
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew

I just tried logging into his server and had the same issue again. Releasing and Renewing my IP did the trick.

Von couldn't connect to Helios's server tonight, even after trying those tricks.
I fired up my server and he connected ok. Weird.
