FCHS - Flash CrossDomain HTTP Server

I've been dreading installing an HTTP Server on 15 XMLSocket servers just to serve the crossdomain.xml file to support changes in Flash 7. After getting frustrated at Macromedia, I focused on finding a solution that was simple and cost effective. Left with very few cost effective options given time & money, I rolled my own HTTP Server. ;)

The server is written in Python in 20 lines of code and runs on Windows, Unix, and OSX. The server only serves the embedded crossdomain.xml file, regardless of the url you enter. You start the server as follows:

//Path_to Python Server_File Server_Port
Python FCHS.py 80

Open the file into a text editor, edit the crossdomain file, and fire it up from the command line. It works great and will save you a world of time configuring apache.

Enjoy,

Ted ;)
