   The short answer is that no, this functionality is not available out
of the box. I believe there are hooks that can let you write a bit of
code to activate the object yourself, but that's it.

=>Dear All,

=>
=>1)  Create a server (SERVER_A)
=>2)  Register it with the Name Service
=>3)  Have a client invoke an operation on SERVER_A and have the Naming
=>Service launch SERVER_A if it is not already running to execute the
=>operation.
=>
=>Could someone confirm/deny this?  And if it is possible could they tell me
=>how to do it?  If it is not possible - are there any plans for its
