Sounds like a good opportunity for using an entity bean, why do you want it to be a SFSB? Perhaps the information which you need to share across sessions could go in the entity bean and just be accessed from the SFSB.

The only way you can guarantee anything close to this is to have both objects create the bean using exactly the same argument values to the ejbCreate() method. On the server-side, there is no guarantee whether you will get the same physical instance or not. The spec does not define this because it allows the vendors to provide a system where it can scale by distributing instances across a cluster of services. -- Justin Couch http://www.vlc.com.au/~justin/ Freelance Java Consultant http://www.yumetech.com/ Author, Java 3D FAQ Maintainer http://www.j3d.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- "Humanism is dead.
