Hi all I am trying to create a lighweight tcp proxy server.
I got this code from ActivePython documentation. What I am trying to accomplish, is I need to connect to local instance of the proxyserver (127.0.0.1). This server must then connect to a remote jabber server, send data, and listen to incoming data. When data arrives, it must relay it back thru 127.0.0.1. The reason why I need I am trying to get this to work, is I eventually want to make this server connect over ssl/tls (which macromedia flash doesnt support natively). The existing code only echoes back what it gets in, and note what it gets back from the remote server. Help would be appreciated [code] # Echo server program import socket HOST = '127.0.0.1' # Symbolic name meaning the local host PORT = 50007 # Arbitrary non-privileged port s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) s.bind((HOST, PORT)) s.listen(1) conn, addr = s.accept() print 'Connected by', addr while 1: data = conn.recv(1024) print (data) if not data: break conn.send(data) conn.close() # Echo client program import socket HOST = 'remoteserver.com' # The remote host PORT = 5222 # The same port as used by the server s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) s.connect((HOST, PORT)) s.send('Hello, world') data = s.recv(1024) print data s.close() print 'Received', repr(data) [/code] thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
