Yet another newbie question: Firewall realities being what they are, I'd like to "multiplex" several things over a single web server/port (80 for production, but for now anything), so I've been hacking at the xmlrpc example, but no luck so far (see attached attempt -- it runs, but gives a "404" for /RPC2 or /RPC2/ ...). Two questions: (1) Is this an architecturally sound use of twisted? (Optimal?) (And if not, suggestions? :^) (2) If so, what am I doing blockheaded? Thanks again for your help and patience! -- Steve.
