[omniORB] Problem with endPoint

[Wernke zur Borg]

I am running an omniORB server on a host with multiple interfaces, thus with
multiple endpoints. I use the 'endPoint' option to generate IORs containing
the correct IP address that is applicable to the calling client, but I
noticed that still the wrong endpoint is used.

In the following trace printout you will see that the host has 3 interfaces
apart from the loopback. Although I specify the ORB option "endPoint
giop:tcp:192.168.1.62:" in the call to ORB_init(), it still uses one of the
other two endpoints in addition, and, even worse, the wrong endpoint
precedes my specified one and presumably gets picked up when an IOR is
built.

Any help how to correctly specify a unique endpoint would be appreciated.
