Creating a bean within another bean and JNDI

Question

Hello,
I am trying to have one bean (a session bean) create another bean (entity
bean). I keep getting a naming exception. Both beans are deployed in the
same JAR file. Also, I can directly create the entity bean (from a client
test app).
Here is the code I have in the session bean:
try
Context initial = new InitialContext();
Object objref = initial.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/User");
UserHome userHome =
UserHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow( objref, UserHome.class );
user = userHome.create( username, password );
catch( NamingException e )
e.printStackTrace();
The result is a naming exception, which is shown below. Why does the naming
exception say "comp.env.ejb.User"?
***** Naming Exception *****
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: 'comp.env.ejb/User'; remaining name
'ejb/Use
r'

thanks, but look at the new code i modified still given error on not resolving the class LoginBean in the class LoginDataBean. here is the new code.
package webclass;
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
public class LoginDataBean
     private Connection cn;
     private PreparedStatement addRecord;
     public LoginDataBean()throws Exception
          Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
          cn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:portal");
     public void addClient(LoginBean log)throws SQLException
          addRecord.executeUpdate("insert into clientprofile(firstname,middlename,lastname,address,occupation,organisation,gender,email,username,password)values('"+log.getFNfield()+"','"+log.getMDfield()+"','"+log.getLNfield()+"','"+log.getAdresfield()+"','"+log.getOrgfield()+"','"+log.getEmail()+"','"+log.getUsername()+"','"+(String)log.getPasword()+"'");
          addRecord.close();
          cn.close();
