Thanks Thomas for the great suggestion. Before diving into implementation of java. I just tested my C++ Server and C++ Client using the naming service on two different computers this time and unfortunately they do not work.<br>
Earlier I was testing the Server and the client on the same pc and they were working. My earlier procedure was quiet simple , I would simply start the naming service using <b>omniNames -start</b> and then run the server and the client .The client would find the data registered by the server on the naming service with no problem.Is there some other configuration details that we have to deal with when the server and client are on different computers on a network?? I think the client needs to know the ip address of the server. Where would i insert that.. Any suggestions would be appreciated.<br>

You would use a CosNaming::Name parameter and a call to resolve() to
find the object in the naming service. Then call to narrow() to
convert it to the specific object type you expect.
string_to_object() should not be involved when using the naming
service.<br>
