Thanks for the response. I will try to rephrase the question. basically I have two Jboss servers. one is used as a frontend which receives all the calls from a web browser client. ( http requests and web service calls) the second server is used as a backend to do some business logic and mainly runs EJB components.
in the current landscape environment the second server is located behind a firewall so that it cannot receive http requests or web service calls. (both are HTTP). the frontend server is used for that purpose. The web service stack is responsible for the translation web service calls into methods calls to the required objects. what I would like to achieve is that the method calls to the required objects will be done on a remote object located on the backend server I previously described. the same way it is being achieved today on our old axis implementation. In the current web service engine we have we are using AXIS 1.4 which is old but is quite modular. it allowed us to replace the module which is responsible for retrieving the required objects to execute the web method call. what we actually did is that we simply made a lookup from the frontend server to the remote backend and received a proxy object. the proxy object is then used by axis to make the required method calls. so basically what happens is that the frontend server receives the web service call, it then receives a proxy objects which executes the calls on the remote backend server. Please let me know if you need some further descriptions. Regarding the documentation, I took a long look at the documentation including the guided tour( more than a work day) the assumptions that I mentioned were regarding the prior knowledge needed in order to understand the documentation. Even though I understand web services and have experience with implementing and consuming them. I don't understand much of the information provided to a useful degree.
