as i said its a guess. red5 implemented a mina server to listen to the rtmp
(and rtmpt) protocol, trying that with a custom socket instead of a
netconnection might fail, but then again you could send data via a
netconnection as well (remote shared objects do this). actually a good hard
look at red5 would come in handy as they have serializers for amf and amf3
as well, which is a very efficient way to send data from and too flash.
a suggestion i have heard (this was mike nimer's idea) was to write a flv
which streamed only metadata, then using function calls back to red5 to do
what you need to do the other way (or even a remote shared object).
so many ways to do this apart from a plain socket to be honest

  I've never used RTMP, so I'm looking into that now. Essentially my
goal here is to have a two-way communication between the flash client
and my web server via port 80. I don't particularly care how I
accomplish that so long as it works. ;)

Thanks for the tip and if you have any examples using RTMP I'd love to
see them.
