Hi,

I made a very simple session bean which has only one for testing purposes business method 'saying':

public String saying(String name) throws EJBException {
 // rename and start putting your business logic here
 return "Have a nice day " + name;
 }

The bean was deployed correct, notified by JBoss (actually 4.0.3):

14:26:10,824 INFO [EjbModule] Deploying Hello
14:26:11,073 INFO [EJBDeployer] Deployed: file:/D:/jboss-4.0.2/server/pzuci/deploy/HelloEJB.jar/

Then I made a test client, the core part of that is:

public static void main(String[] args) {
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub
 Hashtable<String, String> props = new Hashtable<String, String>();
 props.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
 props.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost:1099");

 try {
 Context cx = new InitialContext(props);
 HelloHome helloHome = (HelloHome) cx.lookup("java:/Hello");
 Hello hello = helloHome.create();
 System.out.println(hello.saying("Jhon B"));
 hello.remove();
 } catch (Exception e) {
 // TODO Auto-generated catch block
 e.printStackTrace();
 }
 }

It works fine, but if I tried to addapt the same manner into the simple test servlet, it didn't work. I used the same proxy to the interfaces:

Hashtable<String, String> props = new Hashtable<String, String>();
 props.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
 props.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost:1099");

I don't get exspected message from the business method 'saying', instead the test servelt notifies me:

Hello not bound

How should I obtain the home EJB interface from servlet container?

I'd be glad for some help
