Thank you for the quick reply!  Using the -ORBtraceLevel and
other advanced debugging techniques ("print") we were able
to locate the problem.  It has been a combination of using
different IDL interface versions on client and server and a
small problems with socket handling, that has nothing to do
with OmniORB.  Conclusion: Using OmniORBpy in combination
with other sockets even under Windows NT and using ancient
Python 1.5 works well.  Thanks again!
