Seems to hang, or does hang? Using print statements will tell you whether that's where it's getting stuck or not. > I don't know what else I can try.

This script works for me with that change. (i.e. I can run it with port 2005 already in use, connect to the port, and it will finish without error). =Tony.Meyer -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
