Accessing custom dll from Servlet

Question

Hello,
I am trying to load a custom dll in iWS4.1SP9 but I seem no able to find the dll.
Where do I have to place it on the system? I have placed it in WinNt/system32 dir but still could not find it.
I was sucessful in loading the dll when running as a stand-alone app. What is the difference?
Thanks,
Nuri

Hi !
In your code i think there is a simple mistake in creating the IntialContext
for example:
public Context getInitialContext() throws NamingException
          try{
               System.out.println("url received here is "+url);
               Hashtable ht= new Hashtable();
               ht.put("java.naming.factory.initial", "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
               ht.put("java.naming.provider.url", url);
               //return new InitialContext(hashtable);
               return new InitialContext(ht);
          catch(NamingException namingexception)
               Debug.log("We were unable to get a connection to the WebLogic server at " + url);
Debug.log("Please make sure that the server is running.");
return null;
This intial context is dependent on Application Servers,where exactly placing your EJB's.
In general....
Properties prop=System.getProperties();
prop.put....
IntialContext context=new IntialContext(prop);
Like this it should be....
I hope this will solve your problem,
