<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello there,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">My name is Ramin, working for a company located in Graz/Austria we are faced the fact that our OmniORB based server does not seem to handle multiple network-cards correctly. Our client/server architecture is quite simple, focusing on single-client/single-server on Windows 2000/XP only. At startup of OmniNames, all known interfaces are listed, even those not even being connected to a network at all. It seems as OmniNames chooses the first IP-Adress as the one to pass on to registering server-applications which is not correct in our case. Here is a short snippet of omniNames output, the 192.168.x.x IP is wrong, we would like the server to use the other IP (157.247.x.x):</FONT></P>
