No, you understand correctly.  I should be able to install a database 
and application server on my internal server.   "Should" is the 
operative word.  Right now, I'm not allowed to do that *and* have 
users access the site (it's a long story). 

Thanks for the input on both Flash and Director.  I knew they were 
both good for the web, but I did not know Director could do so much 
on it's own.
