[omniORB] problem with jacorb and omniorb

You almost certainly have a DNS problem. By default, your jacorb server 
probably uses the local host name for its CORBA IOR. If that local host 
name is not the same as that known to the client when it uses the IOR to 
find the server, the server will not be located.

Look at the IOR in omniNames or have your jacorb server print the IOR of 
the server object. Then try to use the same name in a DNS lookup on your 
client. That will give you some clues to look at. It may be sufficient 
to just do a "hostname" on the server and do a "host result" on the 
client machine, where "result" is the result of the hostname on the 
server. Something will be amiss...
