[omniORB] Server on dedicated port

[Alex Tingle]

Wally,

There is nothing wrong with what you are trying to do. It should work. 
I've done it myself.

You should probably run both client and server with the trace level 
turned up. That would help you to diagnose the problem. The first 
question I would try to answer is, is the server receiving any network 
traffic, or is the problem entirely in the client?

BTW, I don't think the ORBpoaUniquePersistentSystemIds option is 
necessary, but I don't think that setting it will cause any problems.
