Hi Steffy
It depends on what u actually want to do.If u want to develop EJBs(i assume coz u have asked it in an ejb forum)u can use JBoss which is a simple application server which u can download from www.jboss.org and if u want an ide u can go for oracle JDeveloper 9i which is also free and of course the basic need in a j2se..
hope it helps

hi
adding to sethu's reply , u could try even pramathi , they have got both the ide as well the server package, the ide of pramathi would create the deployment descriptors for u as well, other than that it is ejb2.0 complient.. u could deploy the ejb's on the pramathi applicvation server as well. Another advantage would be you could port the application to both weblogic as well as websphere
try www.pramathi.com
