log incoming ip/porrt connections

[D. Xenakis]

Hi there. I have a script-service running on a remote server, listening on a specific port. What i need here is to make this also maintain a log file of ALL incoming connections.

Could someone suggest to me a simple codefunction example to implement that on my main running service?

THX!!

Or point me the right way in case this is not that simple to do.

One approach could be simply to log the client socket's peername to a logfile, something
like this:

import logging
log=logging.getLogger("connections")

....
if <<new connection>>:
clientsocket = ...
log.debug("new connection from "+clientsocket.getpeername())
...

This monitors also ip/port of incoming udp packets?
Or just tcp after a connection has been enstablished?
If i dont make any sense, plz correct me. Not much experience with networking here

It begins to sound like you want some of the capability of Wireshark...
In that case you'll want to obtain the PCAP libraries (included with
Wireshark on Windows) AND the PCAP Python module. Warning, you may need to
run in Admin mode to be able to snoop the NIC...
