You can start here:

NetBeans has really good support for JAX-WS and plenty of tutorials are available, e.g.:

Getting Started with JAX-WS Web Services

Glen Mazza's has written plenty of interesting articles on JAX-WS RI / Metro:

Web Services on Glen Mazza's Weblog

The JAX-WS web site references good resources:

JAX-WS Articles

Finally, the JAX-WS RI includes many sample for lots of use cases that you can checkout from:

samples sources

Or just download and unpack the JAX-WS RI.

This was a good starter tutorial, all the source code was provided and the steps were well documented.

Hello World JAX-WS at DZone

Then I found this one and as the author: Paul Taylor states, he couldn't find anything decent for a web services tutorial either that wasn't Netbeans based. He didn't want to learn how to use an IDE, he wanted to focus on the tutorial! I totally agree. I like tutorials, but not when the companies that put them out are promoting their products as the main emphasis, not the tutorial itself.

This is another simple one that I found Hello World Jax-WS RPC Style: At this site they also have some interesting examples that follow this, including a TCP/IP monitor that I may try to watch the soap messages going back and forth.
