Assuming that nameclt can read /etc/omniORB.cfg which has been setup
correctly:

1. Check the content of the root context IOR to see if it looks alright
       catior <root context IOR>
   For example, is the IP address correct? 

2. Does omniNames core dump when you run nameclt?
   If so, this is an indication of compiler/libc problem. I suggest you use
   the binutil/compiler setup we are using on Redhat 5.0. Check our WWW
   news page for details.
