[omniORB] Client connections with firewall.

Hello all,

We want to fix our server port number using ORB_poa_iiop_name_port as we 
plan to put a firewall policy.
Could this be a problem if several clients (out of firewall) try to 
connect to server?

Could someone explain how the reverse traffic happens? I mean the client 
callbacks? Is the client connection established on a different temporary 
port? In that case how can server ensure that outgoing requests can pass 
through the client network's firewall if any?

Thanks in advance,
KV Rao.
