Unable to access an EJB deployed in jboss as 7 - eclipse

Question

I have deployed an EJB in Jboss As 7.0.
Following is what the deployment logs says about the JNDI binding of EJB.
19:21:43,269 INFO
[org.jboss.as.ejb3.deployment.processors.EjbJndiBindingsDeploymentUnitProcessor]
(MSC service thread 1-1) JNDI bindings for session bean named
ManageEmployeeBean in deployment unit deployment "EJBTest1.jar" are as
follows:
java:global/EJBTest1/ManageEmployeeBean!com.test.ejb.businessimpl.ManageEmployeeBeanRemote
java:app/EJBTest1/ManageEmployeeBean!com.test.ejb.businessimpl.ManageEmployeeBeanRemote
java:module/ManageEmployeeBean!com.test.ejb.businessimpl.ManageEmployeeBeanRemote
java:jboss/exported/EJBTest1/ManageEmployeeBean!com.test.ejb.businessimpl.ManageEmployeeBeanRemote
java:global/EJBTest1/ManageEmployeeBean
java:app/EJBTest1/ManageEmployeeBean java:module/ManageEmployeeBean
This is how my client class looks like.
package com.test.ejb.test;
import java.util.Hashtable;
import java.util.Properties;
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.naming.NamingException;
import com.test.ejb.bean.Employee;
import com.test.ejb.businessimpl.ManageEmployeeBean;
import com.test.ejb.businessimpl.ManageEmployeeBeanRemote;
public class Client {
private static InitialContext initialContext;
public static void main(String[] args){
try {
getInitialContext();
System.out.println("CTX:"+initialContext);
} catch (NamingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
System.out.println("Looking up EJB !!");
ManageEmployeeBeanRemote remote =
(ManageEmployeeBeanRemote)initialContext.lookup("/EJBTest1/ManageEmployeeBean!com.test.ejb.businessimpl.ManageEmployeeBeanRemote");
System.out.println("setting employee..............");
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setFirstName("Renjith");
employee.setLastName("Ravi");
System.out.println("Adding employee");
remote.addEmployee(employee);
} catch (NamingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static InitialContext getInitialContext() throws NamingException {
if (initialContext == null) {
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
prop.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
prop.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "remote://localhost:4447");
prop.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "renjith");
prop.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "user");
initialContext = new InitialContext(prop);
}
return initialContext;
}
}
Client is not able to find the service when I run it.
CTX:javax.naming.InitialContext#40964823

Can anyone tell me what am i missing here?
I saw lots of threads on similar topic in stackoverflow, but none of them helped me!!

You are attempting to use the EJB Remote client from JBoss AS 5 (or earlier).
You need to use the JBoss AS 7 EJB Remote client and configure it as per the documentation at AS7 JNDI Reference under the Remote JNDI heading.
