You could store the session values in some sort of storage like MySQL and then request it using an ID over the XML socket. I've also created a PHP script that ran over HTTP and connected to the socket to send / receive messages, then came back. If you built something like that then you could probably use the same session information and send it over the XML socket to whatever Flash listeners there were.

I think a slight modification might have to be made to the socketServer.php code to support this functionality (I don't remember if it has it by default).

If yes, what changes have to do? Can policySocketServer.php binds on other port than 843?

If yes, what changes have to do?

The policySocketServer.php binds on port 843 and serves the crossdomain.xml file. The socketServer.php runs on a different port and handles the actual communication. You must be root to bind on a port less than 1000 on a *nix machine usually. @greg.karz You must run both the policySocketServer.php and socketServer.php simultaneously from the command line.

Currently the logger file just echo's out. I usually just pipe the output of the script to a text file and just tail the log file. For example: php socketServer.php > socket.log Then in another window or session: tail socket.log @Vincent:

It's something about needing a xml socket policy file to be sent to each user from port 843 or something like that but when I try to run a php socket server on that port it tells me "Internal Server Error".

Once I did it with out cli but after a while my flash wouldn't connect the code I used is here : http://www.functionblog.com/?p=67=1 but again it stopped working so I need a socket server that would work. I downloaded php.exe but when I try to run it it says "The program did not start because OCI.dll is missing from the computer. to solve the the problem try re-installing the program" (this was in Hungarian and I translated it). I re-installed the program but the same thing happened. “There’s no other way to have a socket server without running something on the command line.”
