Well, I'm from C, C++ and for me it just belongs there..:) but i'll try to change my habits... :) Hm weird now I get something like: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./TestService.py", line 14, in <module> sock.connect((host,port)) File "<string>", line 1, in connect TypeError: an integer is required with this code: #!/usr/bin/python import sys import string from socket import * usage="USAGE: "+sys.argv[0]+" <server> <port>" if len(sys.argv) != 3: print usage sys.exit(0) host = sys.argv[1] port = sys.argv[2] sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM) sock.connect((host,port)) data = string.join("NovaxTest",'\n') sock.send(data) sock.close() What does that mean? :( Thanks, Ron -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
