Hi Peter,

Yep, it's not too difficult.  I have attached a patch to the omniORB 2.6.1
source that persuades it to accept any key <= 12 bytes long.  Untested,
but it looks okay!

You will need to back port the client-side corbaloc and corbaname stuff
yourself (if you need it) -- see omniURI.cc in the omniORB 3 distribution.

Then all you need is a way to set the object key in your object
implementation in the server.  The following function sets up the
omniORB::objectKey properly:

void set_corbaloc_key(omniORB::objectKey& k, const char* name)
{
  int len = strlen(name);
  if( len > sizeof(omniORB::objectKey) )  throw something;

  memcpy(&k, name, len);
  memset((char*) &k + len, 0, sizeof(omniORB::objectKey) - len);
}

And you need to pass this key down to the constructor of the skeleton
class your object implementation is derived from ... as usual for servers
with persistent keys.

Hope that works!
David
