No.

No.

That IS dependant on the server implementation. I can tell you how you
can handle this with Orion/OC4J. You make the ear2 (the callee
component, from what you say) the parent application of ear1(which hosts
ejb1, the caller). You don't need to do anything with manifest files
then.

Very much. Also, bear in mind that the coupling between EJBs that are in
different jars is somehow loose. For EJB 2.0, CMR relationships are
allowed only between EBs that are in the same .jar file.
