[omniORB] Timeout when server unavailable

[Attila Pletyak]

Have a look at the omniORB Documentation Chapter 8, specifically 8.3. It
speaks about client call timeout period. By default it is not set and
the system waits for an infinite time for a connection to return a
value.

Sincerely,

Attila Pletyak
