I don't call 'you can do that on your own' as standard-wise. Certainly you can run two servers, make sure they are mutually reachable, and client and server share the same process space. But that is not a callback - it is, as you say, a PITA. And a massive lack in the SOAP standard. Regards, Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
