I thought I'd try my hand at sockets, and tried to make a telnet-ish, kinda thing. The problem is that the client I wrote doesn't receive data and display it, and it also only executes single word commands. Thanks in advance.
Server side: #!/usr/bin/env python import socket from subprocess import * IP = 'localhost' sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) sock.bind((IP, 1234)) sock.listen(5) while True: log = open("log.log", "a") channel, details = sock.accept() command = channel.recv(2048) channel.send(command) log.write(str(details)) log.write("\n") log.close() print "New connection logged." try: echo = Popen(command, stdout=PIPE).stdout.read() channel.send(echo) except: print 'Eh?' channel.send('Eh?') channel.close() Client: #!/usr/bin/env python import socket print ''' ----------------------------- Weak Insecure Shell ----------------------------- ''' IP = raw_input('IP: ') PORT = input('PORT: ') while 1: sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) sock.connect((IP,PORT)) send = raw_input('Send: ') sock.send(send) sock.recv(2048) sock.close() _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
