Re: comparing two IP addresses and the underlying machine
By the same physical machine I meant one OS using two interfaces and multiple IP addresses mapped to different interfaces. I figured there wouldn't be a direct solution to this so each time I will send all IP addresses to the "match maker" so I can make comparisons and that should work. Thanks for the help.

I have a feeling that you're trying to attempt the impossible. What do you mean by "the same physical machine"? The same case? What happens if there are two virtual OSes on the machine, each using its own NIC? Unless you have a client application running on "the physical machine" that can respond to queries on each NIC, you're pretty much out of luck. You could write something like a "same_ping" program that would listen on both NICs, and respond with a "yeah, I'm the same machine" confirmation. There are all sorts of ways to do this, depending on how sure you need to be that nobody can spoof it...ranging from simple "here's a random number on one IP address followed by asking the other IP if it's seen that random number before" to having the physical machine sign one request on each port and confirm that their signatures are the same. -tkc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
comparing two IP addresses and the underlying machine
Hi all, I've been trying to figure this one out for some time but with no success. I have a machine with two network interfaces, each with their own IP address and it's own domain, for example: - ipA on machineA.domainA - ipB on machineB.domainB Given any pair of IPs or hostnames (or a mix of them), how can I figure whether they belong to the same physical machine or not? Of course, this is trivial if my python program is running the given machine but what if a remote machine is trying to figure this out (but that machine has access to both domains/IPs). Appreciate and ideas. Ratko -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

figuring out how much data was sent so far via XML-RPC?
I am currently using XML-RPC for a very convenient quick-and-dirty way of sending some files (base64 encoded). The files can be bigger sometimes (10-20mb) and I was wondering if there is a way to see how much data was sent already and how much still needs to be sent (like a progress bar). I would of course need that only on the client side. I know how I would do it with pure sockets but I am not sure how could I get to that lower level with xmlrpclib... I am using xmlrpclib.ServerProxy for the client and a SimpleXMLRPCServer. It would also be great if I could keep the solution (if it exists) within the standard python library (no extra modules) because I am distributing this to other people. Thanks in advance!
