Scket connection to server

[Steve Horsley]

hello python gurus

I would like to establish a socket connection to a server running a service
on port 29999. the host address is 10.214.109.50. how do i do this using
python?

many thanks

Off the top of my head (so there could be errors):

import socket
s = socket.Socket()
s.connect((10.214.109.50, 29999))
s.send("Hello, Mum\r\n")

That should point you in the right direction, anyway.

There is a higher level socket framework called twisted that
everyone seems to like. It may be worth looking at that too -
haven't got round to it myself yet.

The documentation gives an excellent example on how to do this, see
http://docs.python.org/lib/socket-example.html

Just curious...where do these messages show up @10.214.109.50?

Um, at port 29999?

I wouldn't say 'like,' exactly. I've cursed it an awful lot (mostly for
being nonobvious), but it does a damn fine job at networking, especially
if you're comfortable building your own protocols.

If you want a communication library that *is* obvious and easy to use,
try Pyro http://pyro.sourceforge.net
