Hi, Sorry for this question which is probably extremely basic, but I'm just trying to understand what's going on under the hood. I have a servlet running inside a standalone Tomcat 6.0.14 instance. From this servlet I would like to connect to a Jboss 4.2 EJB container to either send a message to a JMS topic, or to retrieve an EJB bean. Since Tomcat already provides a JNDI implementation, I wonder whether I -have- to include the jbossall-client.jar in order to obtain a directory connection to Jboss from Tomcat, or whether I can somehow configure something so that new javax.naming.InitialContext(...); transparently resolves to the directory service operated by Jboss. The catch is of course to do this without including jbossall-client.jar to the web application running on Tomcat. Would this be possible?
