It looks like your code is doing all the right things, with one
important omission. You have to make sure that the server listens on
the same TCP port every time it starts up. To do that, use the
-ORBpoa_iiop_port command line argument. Your program can insert the
argument so it doesn't actually have to be on the command line. See
the omniNames or omniMapper source for how to do that.

Cheers,

Duncan.
