Depends on how you're using them.  By "EJB - Web Service" architecture, do you
mean using SOAP as a transport mechanism (i.e., via JAX-RPC)?  The 
NtlmHttpFilter can be used to provide authentication services for any
HTTP-based protocol; in this case, you would just map the filter to the
endpoint servlet.
