Hi. I had a similar problem and it was that the IOR has to be of an "even" number of bytes.
My problem was the way I was writing the IOR from my Java program and always missed one byte, so the length of the IOR was uneven.
Besides this, there should be no problem connecting w/ ORBit or vice-versa, at least at an IOR level.


BTW debugging ORBit can be very easy if you want, I can shed some light on this. I'm not an expert but I can helpyou a little if you want.

Best Regards and Good Luck.
