Indeed Orbix 2.3 does not support POA, since it was not standardized at
that time.

However it speaks IIOP/GIOP, and though I'm not expert, I think this
protocol is about objects and their interfaces, not their
implementation, so when a client wants to use an object it doesn't mind
whether it is implemented with BOA or POA (or tie versions of them).

Simply I saw LOCATE_REQUEST succeed with omniNames and want to know what
kind of magic is involved to get the same thing working in my server.
