I’m having a lot of trouble with policy files served from the same server and port as an XMLSocket connection I am trying to make. Can someone tell me:

If I have two subdomains, [www.myserver.com](http://www.myserver.com) and [xmlsocket.myserver.com](http://xmlsocket.myserver.com), where the www subdomain is an apache server on one IP address and the xmlsocket subdomain is the server I am planning to connect an XMLSocket to, but it is on a _ **different** _ IP address, can I serve the policy file from [www.myserver.com](http://www.myserver.com) and have it allow the connections to [xmlsocket.myserver.com](http://xmlsocket.myserver.com)?

Thanks for any help!!!
