yes. red5 [1] but frankly: it's a mess.
Try to avoid RTMP. it will save you lots of headaches.

If it's audio-only, consider using icecast2, and ogg + mp3 streams.
liquidsoap may come in handy. Most browers support either ogg and or
mp3s and there are also lots of flash based players available.

If you're stuck to AAC+RTMP for whatever reason. ffmpeg, ffserver could
transcode on the fly.
