With

I get no more error.

Of course, this is the writing client.

Now I have a small problem with the reading client.

This code works so far:

   sfo = sock.makefile('r')
   taro = tarfile.open(fileobj=sfo,mode='r|')
   taro.extractall(path=edir)

But it does not writes anything to the terminal to inform the user.

When I use:

   for member in taro.getmembers():
       print('extracting "%s"' % member.name)
       taro.extract(member)

I get the error:

   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/tarfile.py", line 556, in seek
     raise StreamError("seeking backwards is not allowed")

Of course, a stream is not seekable.

Any ideas?

Try this:

member = taro.next()
while member is not None:
    print('extracting "%s"' % member.name)
    taro.extract(member)
    member = tar.next()
