Well, some vendors have products to overcome this, e.g. Iona has
Wonderwall which is basically a proxy through which all request pass and
in which the IOR is changed. Visigenic has also a product for that
purpose I once read.

I don't know if this works with omniORB too and I don't know of any
freeware tools.

best regards,
