[omniORB] autostarting an omniORB server app

[lou_liz@iafrica.com]

Hello,

I want to make my CORBA server application start automatically when booting up 
on Linux without needing to log in.  (RH 7.0, gcc-2.96-85, omniORB 3.0.3),   

I've tried 2 ways:
(1) by adding an entry in the /etc/inittab file in the correct format, 
OR 
(2) by running the executable from the /etc/rc.d/rc.local script, which is the 
last script to be executed at boot time.

Both methods make omniNames start up without error, then I pause for 5 seconds 
to make sure omniNames has started up, then I try to start up my CORBA server 
app (or any CORBA server app, for that matter, even eg3_imp) without success.

The call to orb->resolve_initial_references("NameService") throws a 
CORBA::SystemException, and the handy little function exceptionName() submitted 
yesterday by Huw Rogers <count0@building2.co.jp> returns "NO_RESOURCES".

Any ideas, please?

Thanks in advance.
