I've just given the Naming service a try here on a Linux Gentoo system and
I'm not seeing the error you mention.  One thing I did notice in the
command you are using to start the service is that you have an '=' in the
-OAhost option.  Try removing this and see if this clears up your problem
(use -OAhost 10.107.127.143).

Regards,
Darren
