I haven't tried it, but I believe you must specifically tell the server to 
listen to a Unix domain socket using -ORBendpoint or equivalent.  The client 
shouldn't need to do anything special but of course it must reside on the 
same machine as the server and must have access to the socket.  The server 
objects' IORs will properly tell the clients how to reach it.

knowledgable to correct me! ]
