Ok, I'll do that.

Yes, that's exactly what I was trying to do.

I've changed the signatures in the model by hand, but the error
persists. I tried to run the NodeManager in Debug mode in Visual
Studio and I saw that there was some kind of error with the
CIAO_Serverd.dll. Now I'm rebuilding CIAO to update the files and see
if it works.
Thanks,
Andre

If so, I guess you ran into the problem that the signatures generated by the older CosMIC didn't match the signatures generated the new CIDLC. At some point between CIAO 0.4.8 and 0.6.3 we changed the way we generate those signatures, and folded the new algorithm into the newer CoSMIC, but since you were using the older CoSMIC, you ran into that conflict.
