Flash RemoteObject Weborb connection without services-config.xml (no Flex)

Question

Context : I'm working on a Flash application developed with FDT and compiled with Flash CS4 (I need a huge library). It should connect to various Weborb services.

Weborb is properly configured. My services are properly executed, and values returned, via the management console. Weborb examples as well as various tests compiled with Flex are fully functionnal.

Problem : when I try to adapt the code to compile with Flash, and setup the remote object like this :

var remoteObject = new RemoteObject();
remoteObject.destination = "GenericDestination";
remoteObject.source = "MyServices.MyService";
remoteObject.addEventListener("fault", onFault);
remoteObject.getFoo.addEventListener("result", onResult);

I get the following fault :

faultCode: InvokeFailed
faultString: '[MessagingError]'
faultDetail: 'null'

If I try to setup a channel this way :

var channelSet:ChannelSet = new ChannelSet();
var amfChannel:AMFChannel = new AMFChannel("my-amf",
    "http://localhost/weborb/weborb.php");
channelSet.addChannel(amfChannel);

var remoteObject = new RemoteObject();
remoteObject.channelSet = channelSet;
remoteObject.destination = "MyServices/MyService";

I then get this fault :

faultCode: Client.Error.MessageSend
faultDetail: Channel.Connect.Failed
url: 'null'

Question: how to properly setup a RemoteObject to connect to a Weborb remoting service from a Flash application compiled with Flash ?

This is driving me nuts.
