I don't think web services require EJBs be used :-) I haven't fooled around with them though. From what I recall having read, you can do web services using Tomcat. What I read, and where, I do not recall precisely. The "impression I have left upon my mind" is that it is possible to do web services under TC. Search, read, and educate yourself about web services. One particular point of interest: Sun has the web services developer pack, and I believe Apache (Jakarta) has a similar project. ... now, if only I could remember where I got that from so I could come up with the name.
If you feel you must use EJBs, JBoss is most likely the direction you want to go. If you can do what you want without EJBs, you don't need JBoss. That is my understanding -- I am far from authoritative on anything having to do with EJBs.
