This is a bit long, because it is multifold, but I am investigating a strange getNetText behavior : I want my shockwave movie to load a simple texte file from my server, using getNetText, and it fails. But in a browser, loading this same file works, and when this file is on another server, getNetText works for this file. And when run from behind a firewall, it fails wherever I store the file...

The file is a simple short text file containing xml data.

I get different errors:
- from behind a firewall, I get the error 4165 (technote says : "Requested Object could not be found (URL may be incorrect)." - from another client place, and on some servers, I get error 4836 (technote says : "Download stopped for an unknown reason. May have been a network error, or the download may have been abandoned")

Two questions then:
- how can I make getNetText work from behind a firewall ?
- when not behind a firewall, why does it fail on some servers and not others ? Is there some http server setting that can be turned off to allow getNetText to work ? Like anti-robots settings maybe ?

Any idea welcome.

Thanks,
