Many naming problems can be avoided by fully understanding the key underlying concepts of the Naming service.
- Review the key concepts of the Naming service, especially the sections about Namespace logical view and Lookup names support in deployment descriptors and thin clients.
- Review the programming examples that are included in the sections explaining the JNDI and CosNaming interfaces.
- Read Naming service troubleshooting tips for additional general information.
- Read Application access problems for information on lookup errors.
