1 more thing.. looking at my global JNDI namespace I see this... +- NewsApp (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext) | +- NewsEntityFacade (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext) | | +- local (proxy: $Proxy110 implements interface ejb.NewsEntityFacadeLocal,interface org.jboss.ejb3.JBossProxy,interface javax.ejb.EJBLocalObject) which makes sense..but I still dont know why I cannot get my NewsEntityFacade object out of teh object that comes out of the lookup.
