so the question really starts to look like: -what's the default listening address for my app (insert nic)? -what's the default sending address for my app (insert nic)? -what's the default listening address for my server? -what's the default sending address for my server? -what's the default listening address for my (insert nic)? -what's the default sending address for my (insert nic)?
any other possibilities?? -----Original Message----- From: python-list-bounces+bedouglas=earthlink....@python.org [mailto:python-list-bounces+bedouglas=earthlink....@python.org]on Behalf Of Nehemiah Dacres Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2009 10:04 AM To: Mark Wooding Cc: python-list@python.org Subject: Re: ifconfig in python That doesn't mean that you can get away with a single address for the entire host, though: you need addresses which correspond to the networks you're attached to. -- [mdw] especially sense we are also getting into virtual NICs where you can have a webserver listening to one and broadcasting a stream to another. -- "lalalalala! it's not broken because I can use it" http://linux.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=194281&threshold=1&commentsort=0&mode=thread&cid=15927703 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
