Check out the EJB tutorial at Sun.
There is also an intro to EJB to.

My suggestion is that you should download some commercial app server like WebLogic and install it with samples than you can learn from that, you should also buy a good book as EJB 3� edition O�reilly, from Richard Monson Haefel and read it.

Certainly do the EJB tutorial from Sun. I would then suggest the O'Reilly EJB book.
You will need a good J2EE application server. I would suggest Orion http://www.orionserver.com/ because it's free for developers. You need to pay for it if you use it in a production environment though. Still, it's way cheaper than WebLogic or WebSphere.
But start with the tutorial adn the O'Reilly book. That will certainly bring you up to speed the fastest and easiest.

With a hardsisk space of 2.1 gb and memory of 64 mb ,will it be possible for me to install web logic . In that case what should i so ? which application server should i install . Will j2sdkee do the job for me ? . If anybody could suggest some project ...so that i can start with some coding right away ( after understanding EJB obviously ).

I guess your memory aint sufficient. I guess u should go for sun 's j2sdkee.
Here is the system requirements for Weblogic server 6.1:
Hard disk drive
For a WebLogic Server 6.1 installation on a Windows system�about 171 MB* of free storage space.
For a WebLogic Server 6.1 installation on a UNIX system�about 210 MB* of free storage space.
For a Service Pack installation on a Windows or UNIX system�see the Release Notes for available Service Packs (if any) for WebLogic Server 6.1 and the free and temporary storage space required by the Service Pack installer program.

Memory
For a Windows or UNIX system, 128 MB of RAM minimum.

Color bit depth display
For graphical user interface (GUI) mode installation, 8-bit color depth (256 colors).
For console-mode and silent-mode installation, there is no color bit depth requirement.

* Includes 76 MB of temporary storage space required by the installer program.
