for this you just put the ear file in the applications directory and put one
line for each ear into server.xml.
example: <application name="ip" path="../applications/ip-app.ear"

from what I gathered off your email yesterday you are used to getting a
client.jar file from Sun's J2EE RI. I haven't found orion to do this for me
so
I just create my own client jars by myself.
example structure:
my-application-client.jar
J2EEClient.class
META-INF
MANIFEST.MF
application-client.xml

to invoke ejb clients I write a shell script that sets any needed classpath
for
the client program(this must include orion.jar from what I remember) and
then
have the script execute my java program(ejb client) with the inline
classpath
argument and a system property for the initial context factory.
example:
CLASSPATH=orion.jar:my-entity-ejb.jar:my-session-ejb.jar:my-application-clie
nt.jar
java -classpath $CLASSPATH
-Djava.naming.factory.initial=com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialCo
ntextFactory
my.package.MyProgramName
Also there is orionsupport web page at www.orionsupport.com site where you
may
get more information.
It seems to me that you're assuming questions posted to the list must be
answered and answered correctly, however, the nature of this mailing list is
a
community list where people exchange questions and answers out of the
goodness
of their hearts(like give a penny take a penny). There is no guaranteed
support on this type of mailing list.
Hopefully my answers are helpful -
