EAR deployments IMO are tricky, i.e. its not like a WAR where the servlet spec spells out where to but libraries and how the app server is suppose to use them (lib gets the first crack before any parent classloaders). Since I believe JBoss currently doesn't support J2EE 5 spec regarding EARs, there is no EAR/lib file to stick jars. As already suggested, you can stick your entities into one jar file and list it as a module in your application.xml. That's probably the best way to share them across the various modules within your EAR file. Finally, you (everyone) should get warm and fuzzy with these Wiki pages: http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ClassLoadingOverview Especially regarding EAR isoloation and classloading namespaces.
