It can't be done with just two plain flash movies. (Someone feel free
to prove me wrong, but I'm pretty sure of this)

You need either:
1. Some downloadable .exe file which handles the connection, or a
swf2exe tool like Zinc
or
2. A server in the middle, like FlashCom (aka FMS), Unity, Oregeno,
(your own custom server), etc

The reason it can't be done with two simple flash movies, is that
flash cannot listen & accept connections. It can only make outgoing
connections.

Even if it could, you'd still have firewall issues, which having an
external server to route the connections thru helps a lot of the time
(still sometimes blocked by firewalls tho)
