ejb-xml is container/vendor specific. I have never seen an ejb.xml
standalone, it is always something like weblogic-ejb.xml or
jboss-ejb.xml. It contains JNDI mappings for resources. On the other
hand, ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptor is a part of the J2EE spec,
which lists the various EJBs, their transaction/persistance properties
and remote/home/class information.
