EJBUtils is an implementation class and should not be used directly by applications.
@EJB declares a ejb-ref or ejb-local-ref in the webapp, AND intializes the target field w/ the injected value. If you want to use lookup (by the ejb-ref-name) only you can declare such a ejb-ref in web.xml, and map it to its remote target in sun-web.xml.
