Mhm?  that should put on stdout the IOR just fine.  What is the
problem you are noticing?

Well, that would be slower and would consume more CPU time than
required.  I do not understand what problem you are observing really.

Note that you do not have to print out the IOR yourself, the Gnorba
libraries take care of it for you (on the server side).

Again, I do not undersatnd what you want to do at all.
