Hi Ralph,
Thanks for your comments, the blog article you referenced is very helpful.
Unfortunately, using Programmatic Login instead of using properties for authentication isn't working in the web client. For me it seems that you cannot look up an EJB via properties and the Context lookup method in a web client but only via Annotations?!
I receive a NullPointerException when using the folling code:
String host = "localhost";
String port = "3700";
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial", "com.sun.enterprise.naming.SerialInitContextFactory");
props.setProperty("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "com.sun.enterprise.naming");
props.setProperty("java.naming.factory.state", "com.sun.corba.ee.impl.presentation.rmi.JNDIStateFactoryImpl");
props.setProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost", host);
props.setProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort", port);
ProgrammaticLogin programmaticLogin = new ProgrammaticLogin();
programmaticLogin.login("user1", "pass1");
Context amInitial = null;
try {
amInitial = new InitialContext(props);
} catch (NamingException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(SessionBeanGeneral.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
try {
this.psiCtrBean = (PsiCtrRemote) amInitial.lookup("ems.ebs.control.PsiCtrRemote");
} catch (NamingException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(SessionBeanGeneral.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
Here is the exception, in line 69 of the "SessionBeanGeneral" the lookup is made:

Any ideas on that?
Is it really not possible to lookup an EJB from a web client using the Context lookup method?
Thanks for your help!
