In the documentation it specifies two mandatory parameters, public id and

What exactly does the second part mean.  Can I specifiy a jar file that
contains the dtds?

You can't specify the jar directly - you can specify a resource within a jar and that jar is on the classpath. Java is able to load non-class files as resources from the classpath and <ejbjar> uses this to load the dtd.

For example, the weblogic element will attempt to load the dtd from the resource

/weblogic/ejb20/dd/xml/weblogic700-ejb-jar.dtd

If you look in the weblogic jars, you'll see it in there with this path.
