Is there a preferred method for having different scripts on different

For example, script A could tell script B that it is done with a certain
process.
I know how to do this using e-mail, but I would like a more direct
method if possible. If my ISP's mail server goes down, for example, I
don't want my processes to come to a screeching halt.
Probably the simplest way would be to use XMLRPC. Python
supports it both on client and server side.
client access:
http://www.python.org/doc/2.4/lib/module-xmlrpclib.html
server:
http://www.python.org/doc/2.4/lib/module-SimpleXMLRPCServer.html
Examples to get you going are also available in the library reference.
Other that that, you could also just use regular sockets.
