[Twisted-Python] Twisted Python 0.7.0 Prerelease Testing
by Glyph Lefkowitz Aug. 5, 2021

Aug. 5, 2021

hi there, folks: I'd really like to release 0.7.0 but I would like it to be at least a little bit tested before I do so. Could those of you with CVS trees check everything out and see if it performs as advertised? Deeper bugs than that will have to wait for the next release, but I'd at least like to know if it works for someone other than me. Thanks. ______ __ __ _____ _ _ | ____ | \_/ |_____] |_____| |… [View More]

Hi, I didn't want to hijack the 'Twisted Presentation Materials..' thread, so I started this one ... First off, in the other thread, Glenn, you mentioned Storm. I have heard of Storm, but never got any deeper that noticing that it is still a work in progress (maybe things have settled down ?) If anyone has anything to say on how it might be a good choice with Twisted, please feel free to enlighten us! But, I hoping to solve some immediate problems with Twisted and SQLAlchemy, so ... >… [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Modifying Conch example
by Pump Kin Aug. 1, 2008

Aug. 1, 2008

Hello! I'm trying to implement the example in the Conch tutorial ( http://twistedmatrix.com/projects/conch/documentation/howto/conch_client.ht…). with some modifications. I want to do the following: 1) Connect to a remote machine using a private key (no password) without knowing the public key 2) Transfer over some files 3) Issue a series of non-interactive commands (to fire up the scripts I transferred over) 4) Close the connection Step 2) I can easily do with a single non-interactive … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Please recommend a RPC system working with twisted.
by Peter Cai July 29, 2008

July 29, 2008

Hi all, I'm looking for an RPC system working with twisted. 1. Binary. I want it run faster than any xml based RPC. 2. Bidirectional. Unlike HTTP, on which the client has to poll the sever for events, the server should "call" the client's method to notify events. 3. C/Python support. Part of the system shall be written in C. 4. Could easily integrated with twisted. Unfortunately, there seems no such resolution existed. So maybe I have to give up some requirements.

[Twisted-Python] Possible bug on twisted.conch.ssh.keys?
by Adriano Marques July 29, 2008

July 29, 2008

Hello folks, I'm facing a problem here while trying to implement a ssh server and client using twisted. There are some deprecated functions that are pointing me to use new ones, which in turn doesn't seem to work fine. I'm not sure if it is the case, mainly because the deprecated functions are calling the new ones, but while debuging the code I found that something there is wrong, and that can potentially be hapenning because of the changes recently made to that module. As I'm somehow new to … [View More]twisted I'm not sure about my statements arround the problem.

Here is the relevant part of the server code, which is the method requestAvatarId of the Credential Checker I implemented: <server_code> # This code is based in an example that I caught from twisted website class PublicKeyChecker(): implements(checkers.ICredentialsChecker) credentialInterfaces = (credentials.ISSHPrivateKey, ) def requestAvatarId(self, credentials): # I removed here the code that verified if the user is registered in our database, to easy for you guys to understand the relevant part of the code. Just consider that the variable user contains the found user object. user_key = user.key.public_key if not credentials.blob == user_key: raise failure.Failure(error.ConchError("Wrong key.")) if not credentials.signature: return failure.Failure(error.ValidPublicKey()) pub_key = Key.fromString(data=credentials.blob) # Issue 3 if verifySignature(pub_key, credentials.signature, credentials.sigData): return credentials.username else: return failure.Failure(error.ConchError("Incorrect Signature.")) else: return failure.Failure(error.ConchError("Authentication Failed.")) </server_code> 3 - Then, while I get to the verifySignature method, I get the following error: <error> RuntimeError: unknown type of object: <RSA Public Key (1023 bits) attr e: 01:00:01 attr n: 00:f7:9f:8b:18:a9:b7:67:95:5c:af:cb:64:91:52: 64:39:1c:98:36:34:31:f2:0b:49:b8:14:8c:a4:0f: 28:17:5b:63:d3:71:21:d4:fc:96:a7:cb:de:43:e7: 8a:80:12:45:2b:6b:42:87:93:de:0a:bf:21:a1:35: 56:17:a8:f9:b3:3c:bb:b8:a2:79:6b:d1:8f:e0:43: 31:2c:23:2d:79:8c:31:a3:31:65:42:5f:ff:3e:3d:... </error> Which is the same exception raised by the key.type() function that have put us at the same trouble in the client. Then, at the debuger, I found that the correct key (which is a class with name starting with Crypto.PublicKey) is right inside this "unknown" object, which is a RSA Public Key in object.keyObject.keyObject! I ran the WingIDE debugger and simply saw that, as you can see in this screenshot: http://www.imageno.com/z99azx3v7qnzpic.html Ok, I also get the deprecated warning while using the verifySignature method instead of Key(obj).verify(sig, data), then I decided to test it also just to don't make you guys wast your time with me for nothing. I called pub_key.verify(credentials.signature, credentials.sigData) instead of that verifySignature call, and it returned False instead leading to a failure in authentication. Both apps (client and server) are running inside the same machine, consulting the same database, the same keys and user, so there it is not reasonable to be failing if my code is correct. Maybe I missed something. Can you guys help me? Sorry about the very long email, but I tried to be as much verbose as I could in order to help you guys help me.

[Twisted-Python] Writing new transports / a tunnel Protocol

Hello, I'm hoping to use existing protocol implementations in twisted, but over a custom tunneling protocol that I'll call CTP for the remainder of this thread. CTP is basically TCP with a couple of strange characteristics. Besides a custom handshake, two actual tcp connections are used for the data transport, each of which is considered uni-directional; one connection is used for "upstream" and one for "downstream". I know how to create a twisted factory / protocol implementation for CTP … [View More]
