Based on the INS specification, ISO Latin-1 characters, excluding the ASCII NULL characters are allowed for ID and Kind field of a NameComponent. The VisiBroker Naming Service constraints it further by allowing only printable characters for ID and Kind field. Furthermore, the length of both the ID and Kind fields cannot exceed 255 characters. And null string is not allowed.
