In addition, WAR files can contain EJB modules and JPA persistence units eliminating the annoying construction of .ear files. Adding EJBs and JPA Persistence beans to your application is as simple as adding the @Stateless, @Stateful, @MessageDriven or @Entity to a class.

- Download openejb.war
- Copy openejb.war to ${catalina.base}/webapps/openejb.war (Note: the file must be named openejb.war)

If you want to access the openejb.war from another computer, you will need to either remove the valve, or modify the IP list in the valve declaration.
The easiest way to remove the valve it to simply delete the webapps/openejb/META-INF/context.xml file and and the webapps/openejb.war file while Tomcat is stopped. Warning that Tomcat keeps a copy of all context.xml files under conf/Catalina/localhost/<appname>.xml, so you may need to delete the conf/Catalina/localhost/openejb.xml file as well. The openejb.war file must be removed because some versions of Tomcat will use the context.xml file packed in the openejb.war file regardless of what is in the unpacked directory.
