Hi!

I'm trying to access a EntityBean from a servlet via the bean's local
home interface. But I get a javax.naming.NameNotFoundException.
The EJB and the Servlet are together in one .ear file
and I'm using JBoss 3.2.3. I think the "<local-jndi-name>" in
jboss-web.xml is wrong. But I don't know what to write there. I've
searched for examples or other help, but I haven't found anything
useful.

Thanks for your help in advance!
