• By the way, the Dukes Bank Application&146;s deployment descriptors are located in &147;jbossj2ee-src\examples\bank\dd&148;. This is notable because deployment descriptors are vendor specific.

• Read chapter 3 of our JBoss Getting Started guide. This guide basically lets you know that 1 is a prerequisite, and that you need Ant 1.6.2.
