the difference between a web server, a servlet container and an application server.
If you know there are three categories, and not just java and non-java, you know enough.
You can expect such knowledge from a j2ee developer; not necessarily from a web developer
who has used a servlet container and thinks about playing with EJB's.

Maybe I'm expecting too much. Cocoon makes it pretty clear that it is a servlet and, as such, requires a servlet container. I would expect anyone intelligent enough to write an EJB would know that it requires an EJB container.

In response to "Even if you don't use EJB":
Tomcat is often used as the container in which cocoon runs. And as far as I know (which is
not that far:) tomcat does not do enterprise java beans, which have an extra layer of
complexity/interface/functionality* compared to pobs (plain old beans - my acronym).
For EJBs to be used you'd need something like JBoss, SunOne, Websphere, Resin and maybe
other full application servers in stead of a servlet container.
For the record - I have no doubt that you know what you're talking about - but starters using
tomcat or jetty for their cocoon should not expect their ejb's to run there:)
