[omniORB] connect omniorb and visibroker

[Brenneis, Steve]

Heinrich,

The osagent is a proprietary extension of VisiBroker. No other ORB is
cognizant of it and I always recommend to VisiBroker users that they refrain
from using it. You will need to pass in to VisiBroker the URI of the omniORB
name server (corbaname URIs seem to work best when using VisiBroker and
omniORB together). Vis:

-VBJprop ORBInitRef=NameService=corbaname::somehost.somewhere.com:2809

Remember that VisiBroker doesn't know the IANA port number for the name
service so you have to specify.

You can verify that omniNames is reachable with the VisiBroker name service
utility:

nsutil -VBJprop
ORBInitRef=NameService=corbaname::somehost.somewhere.com:2809 list

This should list any bindings in the name service default context.

Good luck,

Steve Brenneis
