We're experiencing a problem with our application on Windows NT that is
running fine on Linux and would appreciate some help with diagnosing what is
wrong.
 
Our application consists of four components, EC, EA, CS and a GUI. The first
three are written in C++ using omniORB 2.8.0, the GUI is written in Java.
The EC and EA are to run on NT, they can be started and can commuicate with
each other. The CS runs on Linux, it fails to contact the EC, it cannot get
a reference to the EC object. The GUI runs on either NT or Linux, neither
can contact the EC. If I try and telnet to the IIOP port on the NT machine
(either from the NT machine or from the Linux machine) I get a connection
refused. netstat -a shows something is listening on INADDR_ANY on the
expected port.
 
If I shut down our processes and start an omniNames server on the same port
I can connect to it.
 
I've tried running with -ORBtraceLevel 25 all this shows is that the
accept() is not unblocked for the above cases that fail. The previous
version of our product worked fine but we've undergone an extensive re-write
recently.
 
I'm wondering if this is an OS issue but the debugging enviroment is so poor
(I'm not a Windows fan...) I'm working blind.
 
Any tips?
 
        Simon
