If one were reading HFEJB, one would never have this doubt uncleared.

I can say that stub and skeleton are deployment-time generated classes which work as dynamic proxies to the bean. Truely speaking, an EJBObject is a stub and is a dynamic proxy (Bodyguard in HFEJB literature) to the enterprise bean class. This indirection is the heart and soul of EJB (and many other latest distributed technologies). While the stub is the client-side care-taker, the skeleton is the server-side care-taker (marshalling and unmarshalling of the object copies and IIOP-compltable method arguments for remote objects).

HFEJB speaks only about stubs and not skeletons. You can read RMI for a better understanding.

Go through a basic tutorial on RMI to understand stubs and skeletons
