What is "a standard daemon"? :-) > So if you could wrap up your program in a daemon like fashion (e.g. > http://homepage.hispeed.ch/py430/python/daemon.py) and then point the > xinetd configuration to the right script, it should just work? In fact, the standard use *is* a daemon (that is, accepting connections on a certain port) and I want it to be *not* a daemon. For the daemon method I use something similar to "daemonize", but now I want it to *not* do the binds etc. to listen on a port. The problem is that the server initialization *requires* a server address (host, port pair), but I don't see how to tell it to use the stdin socket (and I'm afraid this is not possible, but I'm not sure). -- -- Jos Vos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 -- Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Fax: +31 20 6948204 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
