That's not really what the CORBA naming service is for. The naming
service does not allocate messages to services. It merely maps names to
object references.

If all you want is to be able to register references to multiple service
instances, then give them out to clients in a round-robin way, it's
trivial to make your own service that does that, either using the naming
service interfaces, or something simpler.

Cheers,

Duncan.
