After some poking around, I found that someone duplicated this problem with a testcase at http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-819[/url]. No one is working it. Based upon the steps outlined in [url]http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBWS-1134. I upgraded jboss-remoting to 2.0. It only requires a minor change to JBOSS_HOME/server/INSTANCE/deploy/ejb3.deployer/META-INF/jboss-service.xml and one line of new code to org.jboss.aspects.remoting.InvokeRemoteInterceptor. After those changes, I can successfully make ejb calls over SSL. The one caveat is that I did not run any of the JBoss testsuite. It could break something, but I haven't had any problems yet.
