James,

The problem is that Ant can't see the java.sun.com website (due to a
firewall problem) or the dtd file itself and so is giving you this
error. To solve this you have to use the <dtd> nested element of the
ejbjar task.
Here is a snippet from my Ant script for building ejbs:
<!-- ejb -->
<target name="ejb" description="create the EJB JARs">
<mkdir dir="${dist}"/>
<ejbjar srcdir="${classes}"
descriptordir="${descriptors}/ejb"
destdir="${dist}"
naming="directory"
flatdestdir="true"
genericjarsuffix="EJB.jar">
<dtd publicId=
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Enterprise JavaBeans
2.0//EN"
location="${descriptors}/dtd/ejb-jar_2_0.dtd"/>
<classpath refid="path.classpath"/>
<include name="**/ejb-jar.xml"/>
<exclude name="**/weblogic-*.xml"/>
</ejbjar>
</target>
As you can see the <dtd> element refers to the dtd that I saved from
Sun's site and placed in my local file system.
For more info, see
http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/manual/OptionalTasks/ejb.html#ejbjar and
look for in the 'Nested Elements' section for 'dtd'.
Hope this helps, good luck! ;)
Andy.
