flash data integration : Webservice with restricted ip access

I've consumed a webservices that will only accept connection from my servers IP
address and a password.
When I run the file locally on the server from a browser it works. But if I
hit the server remotely from a browser it doesn't work. What am I missing. I've
set the allowscriptaccess to always but I'm sure I'm missing something else.
I'm using the webservices connector within the flash application.

What kind of web service have you setup? XML, SOAP, .CFC from Cold Fusion?

How did you restrict ip access? from server or within code?

I believe that the swf file executes locally on your machine. If you are
setting the ip from the swf file you may be passing your webservice your local
ip rather than server ip.

Just a hunch since this works locally from a browser on your server but not
remotely on a browser from different machine.

If you have a varialbe for the ip try checking it in debug. I believe you can
use trace to do this..
