This is a misconfiguration of your Linux machine. It should not be
reporting the loopback interface as the first interface, unless that
is the only interface it has.

If you can't figure out how to set your Linux machine up to give the
network interface first, look into the -ORBpoa_iiop_name_port command
line option and the OMNIORB_USEHOSTNAME environment variable.
