I have a domain 'www.MyWebsite.com' and I want to be able to set up the server to run from it remotely and take connections from there. Can I do that?
thanks a lot for helping!
Running the server on my remote site?

^thanks
so I decided to run my SFS on computer A in my house.
computer A has a private IP of 192.168.0.X
and a public IP of x.x.x.x (just making sure you know i understand)
I set up my router to forward all traffic on port 9339 to go to the PRIVATE IP address on computer A.
I then edited the config.xml and changed the IP to my PUBLIC IP and started the server
When I try to connect remotely from another machine (Computer B = another machine outside my private network with a client pointing to computer A's IP) it never is able to connect.
Do you know what might be the problem with this?

Try changing your config. files to 192.168.x.x to run your server locally. Your flash swf file , however, should have your public ip address to connect to. Your router should then port forward to the correct machine that holds the server.
This is how I had my server set up and it worked well.
Hope it helps.
