[flexcoders] Re: Flash Player 9.0.124.0 - Web Services Stopped Working

[byte.sensei]

I read the security update URL, and tried the URL below but it threw 
an error (also tried searching Adobe KB on using kb403184 but that 
threw an error too).

Here's an example of code that works in 9.0.115.0 but not in 
9.0.124.0:

            var ws : WebService = new mx.rpc.soap.WebService();
            
            ws.loadWSDL(model_locator.APPLICATION_WEB_SERVICE_URL); 
            ws.makeObjectsBindable = false;
            ws.useProxy = false;

            ws.login.resultFormat = "e4x";
            ws.login.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT, 
login_result);
            ws.login.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, 
app_commander.web_service_fault);
            ws.login.arguments.username = username.text;
            ws.login.arguments.password = password.text;
            ws.login();


So does this fall into the category of "xml sockets"?  How do I know 
what port(s) it is using for the socket communication?

Also, it looks like setting up a master sockets file requires port 
843 to be open -- my ISP is very strict about what ports they allow 
and it may take several days to get this port open and directed to my 
master file (if it is even approved at all).

So, it sounds like in my case I'll need to create my own sockets 
policy file and then manually call loadPolicyFile(), correct?  If 
that's the case, what ports do I need to allow?

I'm more confused that before I read the security update.  Help!
