JNDI configuration in Tomcat

I am trying to set up JNDI lookup in web application to be deployed in Tomcat 7. I have specified following properties in jndi.properties file:

java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory, java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces, java.naming.provider.url=localhost:1199

But when i get initial context and inspecting its attributes it reveals that java.naming.factory.initial changes to org.apache.naming.java.JavaURLContextFactory and all other properties remains same as in the jndi.properties file.I dont understand why this single property gets changes ? How can i prevent this and force tomcat to use property i have specified ?

I think you should append your properties to your catalina.properties file,it's under your $tomcat_home/conf.

You should put all this stuff into a Resource element in your META-INF/context.xml file, and look up that resource via a java:comp/env URL. That's what Tomcat is trying to set up here: an object factory for that namespace.

I believe the JNDI properties should be vendor specific, What you trying to put is for Jboss JNDI properties, and may have been reverting to for Tomcat Specific Proerties. Although you can try to overwrite them programatically, it might not work properly.
