Hi Romain, Uday --

I can report success! :D

1.  The JackRabbit Resource Adapter is indeed bound to 
"java:openejb:Resource/jackrabbit-jca-2.8.0RA". 
I accessed it with the following code:

Context initialContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initialContext.lookup("openejb:Resource");
Object o =  envContext.lookup("jackrabbit-jca-2.8.0RA");
System.out.println(o.getClass().getCanonicalName());

However, this returns an instance of the actual ResourceAdapter interface, 
which is not what I'm looking 
for, so I tried this instead:

Context initialContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initialContext.lookup("openejb:Resource");
Object o =  envContext.lookup("jackrabbit-jca-2.8.0");
System.out.println(o.getClass().getCanonicalName());

This returns an instance of javax.jcr.Repository, which is precisely what I'm 
looking for.  From here I was able 
to store and retrieve XML in/from the content repository.

2.  My issues with the JNDI tree were actually caused by me overriding the 
Content environment 
properties in my tree printing code - the joys of cut & paste.  Romain's 
suggestion to look at 
SystemInstance.get().getComponent(ContainerSystem.class).getJNDIContext() 
made me realise what the issue was.  Once that was resolved, the adapter's 
entries showed up correctly.

3.  This kind of info is no doubt scattered across several web pages, but 
hopefully once this makes it into the mailing 
list archives, it'll be easier for others to find. :)

Best,
