I've got a python script that is monitoring the playlist for our local public radio station, and tweeting when new tracks come up. It is using @wdav as the twitter ID (although that is not relevant to this question...)
I am using the twitter.py library to wrap the twitter api. Runs fine on my local laptop, but when I deployed it to my hosted server I had to tell them an IP address it was posting to so they could implement a firewall rule to let the traffic through. I gave them 128.121.146.100, since that's what comes back from a ping to twitter.com. The problem is that it seems the script is frequently trying to use other ip addresses to reach twitter. Is there a range of IP addresses that might be valid Twitter endpoints, that I need to pass on to the hosted server admin team? Any help greatly appreciated! Bill
