ClassCastException - While type casting Home object after EJB JNDI Lookup

Question

Sun One Application Server throws a ClassCastException when I try to type cast Home object to it's respective interface type.
Here is the code ---
==============================================
Object obj = PortableRemoteObject.narrow( context.lookup( jndiName ), homeClass);
System.out.println("Remote Object - obj : "+obj);
if (obj != null) {
   System.out.println("obj.getClass().getName() : "+obj.getClass().getName());
   System.out.println("obj.getClass().getSuperclass() : "+obj.getClass().getSuperclass());
   Class[] interfaces = obj.getClass().getInterfaces();
   if (interfaces != null) {
      for (int count = 0; count < interfaces.length; count++) {
         System.out.println("interfaces[ " + count + " ].getName() : " + interfaces[ count ].getName());
}==============================================
The class name is dislpayed as the Stub class name.
While displaying the interfaces, the Home Interface name is displayed.
But later when I try to type cast it into Home Interface type, it throws a ClassCastException.
Can somebody please check this?
