According to the J2EE spec, when you set an environment entry in J2EE,
it lives under "java:comp/env" - correct?

If I wanted to write a standalone java app and lookup a name that was
set during an EJB deployment, how would I go about doing this?

My first try is giving a null pointer exception:

---- foo.java ----
import java.util.Hashtable;
import javax.naming.*;

public class foo {

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

 Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
 env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
"com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory");
 env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "iiop://localhost:1091");

 try {
     Context ctx = new InitialContext(env);
     String s = (String)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/grkEnvEntry");
     System.out.println("s = " + s);
 }
 catch (NamingException e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
 }
    }
}

[grk@acoldone2 jndi]$ java -classpath ~/j2sdkee1.2/lib/j2ee.jar:. foo
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException:
