So your lookup should look like: Context ctx = new InitialContext(); | //remote home lookup | Object obj = ctx.lookup("CalcHome"); | CalcHome home = (CalcHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(obj,CalcHome.class); | //create the remote bean | bean = home.create(); | For local interface Context ctx = new InitialContext(); | //local home lookup | Object obj = ctx.lookup("CalcLocalHome"); | CalcLocalHome localhome = (CalcLocalHome) obj; | //create the local bean | bean = localhome.create(); | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4057169#...
