The server cannot guess what the appname, module name and bean name would be 
for that target bean (which resides on a different server) to be. It's the 
user's application which has that idea. One way to reduce the tediouness is to 
use the ejb-jar.xml to set up the injection (ejb-jar xsd has the necessary 
details) such that you can then use something like this in the ejb-jar.xml:

 <lookup-name>${myfoo.bar.system.property}</lookup-name>


and set the system property (typically by passing 
-D<system-property-name>=<system-property-value>) while launching the server. 
Note that the system property replacement in deployment descriptors is a JBoss 
application server specific features and may not be portable across different 
server vendors.
