[omniORB] Configuring Naming Service -> I'm VERY Confused!!!

[Gary D. Duzan]

   You're going to hate yourself for this one. You have to leave the "IOR:"
at the beginning of the string.

gdd0@lion { ~ } % catior -x IOR:012e65812800000049444c3a6f6d672e6f72672f436f734e616d696e672f4e616d696e67436f6e746578743a312e3000010000000000000028000000010100000c0000003139322e3136382e302e3200393000000c000000352d399efff820f100000001
