I am using j2sdkee1.3.1
jdk1.4

The runClient works fine but i want to directly call the client code..
Using the following to prepare the InitialContext:
Properties p = new Properties();
p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory");
p.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "iiop://localhost:9999");

and then..
ConverterHome home = (ConverterHome) ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/SimpleConverter");

and then it happens..
