mikemil, In the mean time, the EJB spec has included a portable solution to this problem. JBoss 4.2.x is compatible with this new standard. Just put your jars in your.ear/lib It is a bit like putting jars in yourapp.war/WEB-INF/lib except that they are loaded in the class loader of the ear. You will find more info googling.
