Creating War , not Jar file.

Question

I am trying to create my EJB and i created my web project. The problem seems that my JBoss will not recognize and deploy my table perhaps due to the structure of the war file.
My entities are working perfectly as they work, and have already been tested.
ANyway, what i want is some help into getting my build.xml into making a jar file and sending that one instead of the the war file..
Can someone please let me a link of where i should look ? Or what i should include in the xml file in order to create the file
sTevoo.
P.s - I am using netbeans 6
Ps - I wasnt sure if i had to post here or in the Deploying - Java Archive (JAR) Files

  <property name="jboss.deploy.dir" value="/home/stevoo/jboss-4.2.2.GA/server/default/deploy"/>
    <property name="librarydir" value="${basedir}/lib"/>
    <property name="src.dir" value="src"/>
    <property name="build.dir" value="build"/>
    <property name="dist.dir" value="dist"/>
    <property name="bin.dir" value="bin"/>
    <target name="prepare">
        <delete dir="${bin.dir}"/>
        <mkdir dir="${bin.dir}"/> 
        <mkdir dir="${bin.dir}/META-INF"/>
    </target>
    <!--Set Libs-->
    <path id="libraries">
        <fileset dir="${librarydir}">
            <include name="*.jar"/>
            <include name="*.zip"/>
        </fileset>
    </path>
    <target name="compile1" depends="prepare">
        <javac srcdir="${src.dir}" destdir="${bin.dir}">
            <classpath refid="libraries"/>
        </javac>
        <echo message="Compile ...." />
    </target>
    <target name="compile" depends="compile1">
        <copy file="${src.dir}/conf/log4j.properties" todir="${bin.dir}/META-INF/"/>
        <copy file="${src.dir}/conf/MANIFEST.MF" todir="${bin.dir}/META-INF/"/> 
        <copy file="${src.dir}/conf/persistence.xml" todir="${bin.dir}/META-INF/"/>
        <jar basedir="${bin.dir}" destfile="${dist.dir}/test.jar"/>
        <echo message="Build...." />
    </target>
    <target name="run" depends="compile">
        <copy file="${dist.dir}/test.jar" todir="${jboss.deploy.dir}"/> 
        <echo message="Run ... ${jboss.deploy.dir}"/>
    </target>
    After a whole day of changing and tweaking and all .... this sort of works.
Some more tweakong and done.
Just in case any one else wants this,,,
