Again, I am making assumptions that may be wrong, so be patient with me...

If you do 

new InitialContext().lookup("rmi://host:1099/dummyTest")

then you know the protocol to use to call the naming server (rmi).

If you do

Map env = ...
env.put(Context.PORVIDER_URL, "iiop://host");
new InitialContext(env).lookup("dummyTest")

then you know the protocol to use to call the naming server (rmi).

If you do

new InitialContext(env).lookup("dummyTest")

then you call Context.getEnvironment(), and it should contain the content of 
jndi.properties as per JNDI spec.

Am I right in assuming that before the real remote call to lookup you end up 
in carol code, so you can figure out the protocol to contact the naming 
server ?

Thanks !
