I don't quite understand the question. Are you saying that the client
keeps reverting to the original profile, and the original location
keeps forwarding it to a broken location?  If so, I'd say that omniORB
should not time out since it's not waiting for a response -- it's
repeatedly getting a broken response.

Can you clarify exactly what the situation is?

Cheers,

Duncan.
