Is the problem really that it is listening on IPv6?  By default, omniORB
listens on all network interfaces, both IPv4 and IPv6, so it is more
likely to be a problem that it is publishing an IPv6 address in its
object references.

You can force it to publish an IPv4 address (if there is one) with
-ORBendPointPublish:

omniNames -start -ORBendPointPublish ipv4
