    You can use the loadVars, XML, or XMLSocket classes from your server side actionscript to interact with your .NET application.

    See the server side actionscript docs for those classes for examples.

    There are two parts to this,

    Flash Media Server application - both client and server side. Check out the video conference app here http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/sample_apps.html.

    The client side app will be a .swf file which you can develop in Flash/Flex.

    Second, you will have to embed this swf file in your asp.net page that will be delivered to browsers. I am not an expert in asp.net but googled a bit and get a feeling it's possible using

    tag.

    Also don't forget to check this link http://renaun.com/blog/2006/10/28/139/ for video conferencing app using flex and FMS.

    The third (and perhaps the most important) part is that you need a means of authenticating clients as the connect to the FMS application. To do this, you'll want the FMS application to call out to your .NET application to validate credentials the .swf will supply to the FMS application when it connects.
