@EJB is used to inject a reference to an EJB, not to define one (one could argue that this wasn't the best annotation name but with CDI's @Inject this is all pretty much going away). We should probably trigger a warning when deploying an EJB annotated with @EJB as it doesn't make much sense.
When it comes to injecting the EJB reference (you don't mention from which component btw), you should really avoid JNDI as this can be quite error-prone and use @EJB instead (or @Inject if using CDI which is part of Java EE 6). If you really need to use JNDI, then use the standard and portable JNDI names given to the EJBs (see GlassFish log on deployment).
