Thank you for the links! My RIA shouldn't ever need more than 1 CPU so the FDS Express seems like it could be what I want, but the one article I did find, that I posted in the original message, was pretty short on details, and doesn't work for me for some reason.
Any better tutorials and examples of using FDS? My RIA will eventually be a commercial app in the $1500-$2000 range per site, but WebORB Professional, at $800 a CPU, will be too expensive. I can get AMF0 with AMFPHP, assuming I can ever get it working, so it really comes down to FDS, AMFPHP, or WebORB Standard Edition. Which one is easier from a beginners standpoint, and where can I find working examples with great documentation? Source files would be nice too? Or maybe you've got a simple one I could look at?
