||unity-dev|| Client on server to host scripts

[unity-dev@moock.org]

You wouldn't need the Flash client with the model to run on the server. You 
could run that client on any machine and have it send the data through Unity to 
other clients.

If you really want something running on the server, you can write it in pretty 
much any language. I use a perl script to send data to Unity for distribution to 
Flash clients. If you have questions on how to set that up, I can give you more 
information.
