> Can webservices be unregistered from axis? yes .. undeploy support in the Axis geronimo module is not written yet. it is matter of writing code. (I do not get a chance to look in to those things due to Axis2 ..) I will implement that shortly.

I will check it agien and report to dev list. > I don't understand yet about web services that talk to POJOs. Is each > POJO wrapped in an individual servlet?

It convert parameters in SOAP(XML)->java objects. then it call the impl with parameters. Impl is a POJO/EJB. if it is POJO axis simply load the class, create instance and call it. if it is EJB axis call it though ContinerIndex (inside OpnEJB)/or Remote Interface. What ever results will convert to SOAP(XML) and send back. So As far as POJO is concerned "axis handle all of these itself without interaction with the rest of the j2ee framework" Thanks Srinath
