[] To use RED5 Server

- checking if it works
browse 'http://RED5-Server-IP:5080/
- to install your RED5 Server based applications
copy them to dir '/usr/local/red5server/webappz'
suppose you copy them to
'/usr/local/red5server/webappz/myFlash'
so they will be accessible at
'http://RED5-Server-IP:5080/myFlash/
- to make it run at port 80 like any HTTP Server
edit '/usr/local/red5/conf/red5-origin.xml'
and '/usr/local/red5/conf/red5.properties'
by replacing all instances of Port# 5080
by simply Port# 80
