Hey all,
I am trying to use socket to send / receive a packet (want to recreate some
functionality of hping3 and port it to windows and mac as a tcp ping). I am
having some problems with the recv functionality of socket. Below is the
script I am using. I get an ack from the server (used wireshark to ensure it
was working) when I run this, but the script doesn't see the ack for some
reason and the script exits with this error or a timeout:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./tcpgcmtesttristedit.py", line 21, in <module>
s.recv(1024)
socket.error: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer
Here is the script:
import socket
import time
numberofpackets = int(raw_input("How many packets should be sent?\n> "))
hostname = 'mtalk.google.com'
port = 5228
for i in range(numberofpackets):
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.settimeout(4)
s.connect((hostname, port))
s.send('data')
start_time = time.time()
s.recv(24)
print time.time() - start_time
s.close()
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Tom.
