Hi Scott.

Let me start by explaining why I decided on SOAP inplace of RMI.

I have an application deployed on IONA, It contains only EJB's which access
a local Oracle 9i database and also a remote Corba Server.

Now I have another server which is a web server + servlet container which
has all my JSP's and servlets.

Both these servers are running in different hosts and also have a firewall
between them. Considering RMI, I was'nt able to lookup my Facade EJB (Entry
Point into IONA's application) and make method calls on it. I have managed
to communicate to IONA from JRUN using SOAP. Now what remains is to expose
the Facade EJB as a soap service so that I can make calls on it.

Would it be possible to come over this situation in a better way ? I feel
SOAP is ideal for this and can get the job done.

Regards.

Vinay
