Hi.

I have had simmiliar problem with omniORB 2.7.0 and servicepack 4 or 6 (
I don't remember) , left unresolved because of lack of time, but maybe
my supensions will help.
First check if TCP/IP is properly configured, simply by pining your
localhost using IP address.
If it works and omninames is started, example programs should start too.

It won't start as a service as long as it doesn't start manually.
