Well you can change it right there in the browser by calling methods on the movie object and setting variables.
It is important to keep anything like that on the server side, as you can see with a lot of online flash games with high incredible hiscores, etc. I did this a couple of times to test security on sub-contractors code for clients and it was quite embarrassing for them, not to mention a potential security and PR disaster that can sink a company if it is a non-trivial environment. The best way is to have a well defined server api and let the flash client speak to that using xml, etc. The api can implement role based security and catch any attempts to subvert it by checking against known state or whatever. An easy example would be having different asp pages (or one that processes all commands) that accept query strings (or xml) and return xml. e.g. instead of having "select * from clients" in your flash code, you would call getClientList.asp?blah=blah&etc which would check that the (authenticated)client had permissions to get a client list and then generate and return the xml from sql statements.
