I tried your code and it works fine for me. The script always exits right away after scanning all ports. I tried various hosts and various port ranges. I'm running Python 2.4.4, Twisted 2.5.0, on OS X.

Chris,

Thanks for trying it out. I'm working on Ubuntu Gutsy, Python2.5, Twisted trunk, Kernel 2.6.22. I just tried on a server running Ubuntu Dapper, Python2.4, kernel 2.6.15 and that shuts down straight away, as you found. Oh well.

btw: I would warn against port scanning public sites such as google; you don't want to trip an IDS and cop the wrath of a network admin.

I was using someone elses ADSL at the time :)

Hope this helps. Cya at PyConUK.

Yep, look forward to it. Assuming I finish the slides in time. ;)
