The original poster has a TAO server and some omniORB clients to
combine. Server code is generally less portable between ORBs than
client code, so it makes perfect sense to me that she should use TAO
for the combination. Much though I'd like omniORB to take over the
world, I think Thomas' advice is correct here.
