Look at the spec, specifically the <ejb-ref> tag, as well as the description
of deployment in Chapter 16. Your session bean should have a hard-coded jndi
name. Nothing wrong with that.
What's cool about the spec, if the deployer can choose to give different
names to beans. The <ejb-ref> tag provides an <ejb-link> attribute to point
to the "real" bean.
