Hi Stefano,

  I am glad to hear, you got omniNames up and running:)
The entry in the trace about omniDynamic library not
being linked is purely informational, and you can safely
ignore it. omniDynamic is needed for dynamic CORBA
features such as dynamic invocation and skeleton interface
aka DII and DSI, probably also for dynamic any's and so on.
  The line with the exception does not look so good. It
translates roughly into; COMM_FAILURE/there was a problem
with the transport layer, NO/the call did complete at the
server side, and it seems to be a problem with the unmarshalling.
  The difference between using a corbaloc and a corbaname
URI is a bit subtle, i guess. corbaloc's refer to objects
directly, but corbaname URI's are resolved by lookups in the
CORBA NameService. The nicest resource about this, i have
found, is:

Yours sincerely,
