Hello Ivan, Well, you shouldn't use File IO in an EJB app because you can't guarantee that the file can be read off the filesystem. For instance, the file could be served out of a jar file. However as long as you get an InputSream or URL of your properties or XML file, then you are fine. That means you can store your config file in a jar archive or in a JNDI directory or wherever you want. That said, I've not done too much with EJB, but, in theory, there is no problem in reading your config in EJB's.
