hi.
i have wrote a basic xml server for my flash application using java . my flash
client runs clear in localhost and local area. but when i upload swf to my
host, nobody can connect to server. when i click to connect button , nothing
happens.
I am using xml connector to connect.
that doesnt work
XSock.connect("84.142.6.111",6667);
but the code belov runs perfect.
XSock.connect("192.168.2.106",6667);

What is the problem ?
Should i install any components to the web server (for example) that hosts swf
file ?
What is wrong ?

There's a pretty good chance your host doesn't have that port open to recieve.

yes. the port is total open. i have tested the port and router configuration
with irc server.
i am using flash mx pro 7.2 and i have learned that i must load policy file .
and i am making a research about it.
should i load policy file to connect to XML Socket server ??

Yes. I think you must have a policy file. Flash player 7 does not allow you to
call data from different domain/IP unless you specify it in a policy file. I
have a similar problem with remoting, Coldfusion in a shared hosting
environment.

Good luck
