Server-side check for what site an .swf is hosted on?

Is there any way to make the SmartFox server check for what website a .swf that connects is being played from? For example, to only allow .swf's hosted on www.mysite.com to connect the the SmartFox server?

Thanks!

"Lag" setting for local testing

I think that a cool feature to add to SFS would be a "lag" setting to allow developers running SFS on their local machines to set a "lag" level for testing purposes.

This would allow them to simulate different levels of lag to test how their games would perform for dial-up users, users who are ...

1.4.0

Is the upcoming new version (1.4.0) fully backwards compatible with 1.3.0? Will any updates have to be done to existing flash client apps that work with a 1.3.0 server to make them work with a 1.4.0 server?

Is it possible to simply paste <zone>...</zone> definitions from the config file of a 1.3.0 ...

Small bug with remote administrator logon

I seem to have found a small bug with the remote administrator logon.

I have 2 seperate instances of SFS running on my server, each on the same IP address but a different port.

If I use the remote admin tool to attempt to log into the server on one port, but supply an invalid password, and then ...

I now have my dev server setup and I have the free trial version of SmartFox Server Pro setup and working on it. I've played around with it and it seems really great!

No, I'd reccomend to use two server instances, one for stable games and one for beta-testers. You can safely install them on the ...

Yes, CentOS is a Linux distribution. It's basically a repackaged version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Thanks, Lapo, you've been very helpful!

ok, one more question and I think I'm all set to get started:

Will it run ok on an Athlon 64 system running CentOS? Any known compatibility problems with this setup? If not, I'm off to order a dev server and get started with the free trial!

Thanks, Lapo. That sounds like a good plan. I have one more question.

Once things get going, we'll have multiple "production" games going at once that are live with real players, and also multiple "beta testing" projects going where we test the games with limited numbers of selected players.

Is it ...

One installation for multiple projects

I'm evaluating Smartfox for use as a comm server for online multiplayer flash games. I would have several different developers all working on individual completely seperate projects at the same time.

Is it possible (or adviseable) to run several different independent multiplayer flash apps from ...
