Problems with tnameserv.exe in J2SDK 1.4.2_05

[Jan Persson]

Hi,

We recently upgraded our system from JDK 1.3.1 to 1.4.2_05 and now we are
experiencing strange problems in the CORBA layer connected to tnameserv.exe.

If I start a blank tnameserv.exe and run the following test program
(which basicly only connects to the naming service and then quits, in a loop)
it will only be able to do this 240 times. This means that our application
can only accept about 240 incoming connections before it crashes.

However, if I run the same code against a tnameserv.exe from JDK 1.3.1
it seems to be able to run forever.

Is this a known issue? Does anyone have a workaround?

Best Regards

// get the root naming context

try

}
catch (InvalidName e)
{

NamingContext ncRef = NamingContextHelper.narrow(objRef);
