Acme.Context/Manager.Object is not an object. It is the name you have
used to register an object in the naming service. Are you saying you
have multiple naming services, or that you have tried to store more than
one object reference with the same name?  The naming service is an
incredibly simple mapping from names to object references. That's all it
does -- it doesn't know or care about object locations or anything like
that.

You either need to register all your objects with different names, in a
single naming service, or you need to talk to lots of naming services.
If you want to use multiple naming services, the easiest thing is to not
use InitRef at all, but to use lots of corbaname: URIs in
string_to_object.
