Well, most of the information on packaging is available on the Geronimo docs. I must say that my startup experiences with Geronimo was also very difficult, and the docs aren't very easy to navigate. It's well indexed, but not always clear where to look. Geronimo is also not very intuitive and "user friendly", though once you get to know it, it's brilliant. Took met about a week or so to get comfortable with it, and I doubt I'll turn to another server anytime soon. Especially given the quick turnaround on bug reports.
Either way, what you can try is to use your IDE to make the EJB jar for you. Which IDE are you using? I prefer Netbeans, though I would probably recommend Eclipse is better for a new Geronimo+JavaEE user. Also checkout the IBM redbook for WASCE. It's not Geronimo per se, though very close to it and has good thorough information on doing JavaEE with WASCE. For the more technical bits there is always the mailing list and online documentation. You can find the redbook here: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redpieces/abstracts/sg247639.html?Open&S_TACT=105AGX10&S_CMP=WASCE And the Geronimo 2.1 docs here: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/ >From the Geronimo docs, I recommend checking out these tutorials as well: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/tutorials.html And when you have the time, invest in slowly browsing through the Geronimo documentation. There is really a lot documented there, and the listings are of good quality and ever improving (compare 2.1 to 2.2 docs) and I've found it very useful to get a good "impression" on where to find things.
