The only thing I had to change about this was to assign the additional class variables before calling super() because in the __init__() method of the base class my overloaded handle() method is already called which needs those extra variables. > And later: > import functools > server = SocketServer.TCPServer((192.168.1.10, 12345), > functools.partial(ReqHandler, ham="hello", spam=42)) Thanks a lot, that's now all working perfectly well and I got rid of those pesky global variables;-) Probably the guys that wrote the SocketServer module indeed didn't expect people as dense as me to use their module and thus didn't mention that passing additional information to a handler object can be done this way...
