proxying rtmpt by nginx

Hi,

We use rtmpt just in case our firewall doesn't allow rtmp port/protocol. If
there is protocol restriction then rtmpt will just work fine in any port.
But if there is port restriction we need to put rtmpt at port 80(there is
rarely any restriction on port 80). But then what will be http port for
red5. We need to put access that too, right?

Thanks,
Rakesh.
