SFS seems not to like SharedObject.getLocal

I'm using ActionScript 3, and I'm at the point in my game development where I want to start saving stuff to the disk. In previous single player games, I used a SharedObject.getLocal function command to make a save file containing high scores, etc. Well, I tried to do this in my server side extension, and SFS tells me it has no idea what a SharedObject is.

Is there a way to tell SFS what a SharedObject is, or am I supposed to be using *shudders* an external database for server side file storing?

var acc1data = SharedObject.getLocal("acc1data");

is the crashing line. I originally used a variable named temp instead of the text string, but went to the string just to make sure it wasn't a problem of variables being disallowed for file names.

Actionscript extension for serverside is AS1.

What are you trying to do exactly? Do you want to create a file to store all highscore information on serverside?

It would be better to store highscore information in the database for the ease of sorting etc.
