[Twisted-Python] reactor and FAMd
by Matt Feifarek April 7, 2005

April 7, 2005

I sent this a few days ago, but it never showed up; my apologies if it eventually does show up, and we get a dupe. I'm interested in using FAM/FAMd on Linux and to have its events noticed by a twisted reactor. I did some googling, but didn't find much. Has anyone done this, or does anyone have any pointers on where to begin my research? I know that the various linux desktops use FAM, and there are some reactors keyed to the graphical toolkits that they use... is that the way to do this? Thanks.

[Twisted-Python] shedding root
by Matt Feifarek April 7, 2005

April 7, 2005

I've seen how the plugins created by mktap can shed root and after binding to a port, and run as an unprivileged user... I'd like to do this in my twisted code, but my app isn't structured as a twisted "plugin". How can I manipulate the reactor (or whatever I need to tweak) to drop root after binding to say, port 80? I tried using standard python os.setuid() etc. but it just locked up the reactor. I looked in the API for useful material, but I was unsuccessful. Thanks!

[Twisted-Python] PB connection
by Henning.Ramm＠mediapro-gmbh.de April 7, 2005

April 7, 2005

I'm trying it again... I got a working PB server (database proxy something). A one-time client (like Howto-simpleclient) can connect and call remote functions. My "real" client creates a PBClientFactory at startup and connects (reactor.connectTCP). It has its own reactor and waits for files to write them to the database. For each query it tries to get a RootObject, but that fails with "Connection was refused by other side: 10061: Unknown error." Must I create a new factory or connect again … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] UDP File Copy
by van Aswegen, Marinus (ZA - Johannesburg) April 6, 2005

April 6, 2005

My original motivation was to do "fast" file copies on the local LAN via UDP. Sure I would have to build some additional checking but I anticipate that I would still get better tx rates than TCP. However from a design perspective, I would also like to provide the ability to send files via the Internet. Therefore I agree TCP would be the better option. Does anyone have a good TCP file copy class ? I'd like to be able to handle multiple file tx's ... Marinus Date: Tue, 05 Apr 2005 17:26:44 +… [View More]
