Let me take up both the scenarios and do some analysis:

1) Downloading classes required by the client may not be a real problem.
All that needs to be
done is to bind the stub of the Bean with the codebase set. However, I'm
not sure how many
vendors support such a facility like this.

2) Now to the second scenario: Downloading the code of another Remote
Server(that is not an EJB)
by an EJB. There are no restrictions on accessing Remote Obejcts(that is
not an EJB). And so, if the stub is annotated
properly, the Bean shouldn't have any problems with dynamic download.

Reg the Second scenario: Why is it that we don't have
"container-managed" access to Remote Objs? The connections to a remote obj
can also be pooled hte same way JDBC conns are, right?

P.S. I say i'm not talkin abt EJBs coz that's altogether a different
scenario involving other issues like: local-call
optimizations for remote calls etc..
