Hey, that's good news !

Do you have other servers running on your box ? can you telnet on the
IIOP port ?

By local/remote, you mean you're using PPP, right ?

Here, PolyORB cannot establish a connection, so the first step might
be to see if you can access other servers, e.g. Apache, telnet, ssh, etc
