Just for the sake of asking,
 
why do you have tomcat serving jsp/servlets and orion serving ejbs if they're both running on the same machine? For me, that sounds like asking for extra maintenance trouble. And another thing, from having one "single point of failure" you now have 3. If either one if these three applications decide to call it a day your whole application dies and that goes for having two machines running different software aswell. Why not use two or three machines all running orion and having them split the workload by clustering them?

Patrik

   Hya...
   Got a reply for you :).
   I use Apache as a front-end server. I use Orion to store my EJBs, and I use Jakarta-Tomcat to deploy servlets and JSPs. Just put the Tomcat and Orion on one and the same machine, start tomcat with a classpath, that includes the jars of the Orion server. Put a jndi.properties file somewhere (probably the web-inf/classes directory) and specify the jndi properties as for a remote application:
 
  java.naming.factory.initial=com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory
  java.naming.provider.url=ormi://127.0.0.1/<your application>
  java.naming.security.principal=<admin user>
  java.naming.security.credentials=<admin pass>
 
   Than you can safely read the Apache-Tomcat connectivity issues.
   I have used this with IAS instead of orion also. It worked.
   Apache and Tomcat are "cheaper" than other web servers :)
 
   May the shade of the tree strengthen you.
