If they are running on the same host with no untrusted local users, you can use unix-domain sockets instead of TCP sockets and then the server should be unreachable from the internet. Then you're less exposed to possible security issues with libraries like Pyro. Personally I've just used SocketServer/SimpleHTTPServer on the listening side and simplejson for serialization, but that was for low-rent, low-performance applications. If you want something faster, zeromq (www.zeromq.org) looks interesting. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
