Question / Help Live streaming setup-help

What we want to accomplish:
Streaming live video and music from a concert to a predefined private website.
At the moment we're unsure of what software to run where to do this.

What I'm thinking:

1 Laptop / PC connected to the internet at the concert itself running OBS capturing both video from an external cam (webcam with HD perhaps) and an audiocard getting the balanced audio straight in.

This PC streaming to ???? (need help to fill in the gap here) and connect that server to our website with a flashplayer of some kind perhaps?

What do we need to do with the server accepting the stream from the laptop? What kind of server should this be? FMS?
How would I then connect a flashplayer or somekind of videoplayer to the stream? Could I get the server to accept VLC connections perhaps, and just post a link on the website?

Any pointers on this?

The laptop has to stream to a private media server that would be responsible for delivering the video feed to the viewers over rtmp.
Follow this guide viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2651 to set it up (you can also use red5 as an alternative if the server is running windows).

For the website you can use a player such as jwplayer and provide the rtmp url on the page script and then it should show up in your website page.

Ok so RMTP is the way I need to go? I'm not famliar with the tech or the talk when it comes to this side of things.
Using nginx should be fine.

If that's all, it's amazing!
Thanks for the pointer!
