Yes, you can do exactly that. See

  http://omniorb.sourceforge.net/omni41/omniORB/omniORB004.html#toc19

Having said that, there's nothing special about the object reference
given to ORBInitRef. You can just as easily pass a corbaname URI to
orb->string_to_object and not bother registering it as an initial
reference at all.

Yes, you can start omniNames like that, but what are you trying to
achieve by doing so?  omniNames by default listens on all network
interfaces, so you don't need to pin down which one it uses.

Cheers,

Duncan.
