So, I went for the low-hanging fruit and defined my own TCPServer class class MyTCPServer(SocketServer.TCPServer): def __init__(self, server_address, RequestHandlerClass): self.allow_reuse_address = True SocketServer.TCPServer.__init__(self, server_address, RequestHandlerClass)
and then httpd = MyTCPServer((hostname, port), Handler) httpd.serve_forever() and this solved my problem!
