Okay, I'm about to drink a pint of windshield wiper fluid. If Peter or anyone 
else can help me, I'm forever grateful.

I have created a new standard Java project, named 
com.acmeco.serverapp.ftp.client, that sits next to the EJB3 app in my Eclipse 
workspace.

I have created a jndi.properties file in the build path that has the data Peter 
suggested (even though I'm already hardcoding this info in the class itself 
below).

I have created a new class in the default package called HelloClientPOJO.java. 
Here is the code:

import javax.naming.InitialContext;
  | import javax.naming.Context;
  | import javax.naming.NamingException;
  | import java.util.Properties;
  | import javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject;
  | 
  | import com.acmeco.serverapp.ftp.ejb3.*;
  | 
  | public class HelloClientPOJO {
  | 
  |     FTPBean _ftpbean;
  | 
  |     public HelloClientPOJO(){
  |             try{
  |                     Context jndiContext = getInitialContext();
  |                     Object ref = 
jndiContext.lookup("com.acmeco.serverapp.ftp.ejb3.FTPBeanRemote");
  |                     _ftpbean = (FTPBean)ref;
  |             }catch (javax.naming.NamingException ne){
  |                     //nothing
  |             }
  |     }
  | 
  |     protected void sayHello() {
  |             _ftpbean.doWork();
  |     }
  | 
  |     public static void main(String [] args)
  |     {
  |             HelloClientPOJO helloClient= new HelloClientPOJO();
  |             helloClient.sayHello();
  |     }
  | 
  |     // developed for JBoss only. this is vender dependency
  |     public static Context getInitialContext( ) throws 
javax.naming.NamingException {
  |             Properties p = new Properties( );
  |             p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, 
"org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
  |             p.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, " 
org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
  |             p.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://localhost:1099");
  |             return new javax.naming.InitialContext(p);
  |     }
  | }
  | 

Here is the error on the console when the POJO app runs:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
        at HelloClientPOJO.sayHello(HelloClientPOJO.java:24)
        at HelloClientPOJO.main(HelloClientPOJO.java:30)


I got this from this URL/tutorial:
http://biese.wordpress.com/2008/02/20/how-to-call-ejb3-from-jsp-servlet-and-stand-alone-application/

Neither the server nor the bean(s) have been changed, so my JBoss 
startup/deployment log and JNDI info is all the same as before. What am I doing 
wrong? What do I need to put into the content lookup to find the bean?

Please help! Once I get this working, I am going to write the world's most 
idiot proof Hello World for JBoss 5/EJB 3/Eclipse. I know a LOT of other people 
have/had problems with these issues. I want to end the confusion once and for 
all.
