Cannot connect to FMS3

I thought it was because I was placing the files in the wrong folder but that didn't seem to be the problem. How can I test the connection using the sample.flv that installed by default? My systems admin swears the firewall is open etc. etc. etc. but we are running FMS3 on a Windows 2003 server and he's a novell admin so he said he could be missing something there. Any help would be great!

    Write a very simple AS2 program in flash:

    var nc=new NetConnection();
    nc.onStatus = function(info){
    trace(info.code);
    }
    nc.connect("rtmp://myFmsHostOrIP/my_application_name");

    If you get NetConnection.Connect.Failed in your output window, the server cannot be reached (meaning your sys admin has some digging to do). If you get anything else (like NetConnection.Connect.Success or NetConnection.Connect.Rejected), then it's a problem with your application setup.

    I am having similar issues (see unsigned application post). using the above code running on a web server outside the firewall I return NetConnect.Connect.Failed when i run the application on the FMS3 server i get NetConnect.Connect.Closed and the server log shows rejected because the application is unsigned.
