You don't have to put the EJB classes into the WEB-INF/classes directory for
servlets to be able access them. They have to be there for jsp pages that access
the beans because the jasper compiler was is only given the WEB-INF/classes
directory.
Do you have a non-jsp example that requires WEB-INF/classes ?
