alright i'm just starting to look into this to see how feasable it is and what has to be done if anyone has any comments on how the mod_python handler can be invoked through a protocol module such that the primary codebase of a particular application can be reused in multiple gateways, i'd appreciate it basically what i'm looking at right now is a low level telnet protocol module that is reasonably transparent... that can be augmented to support full telnet, pop/3, imap, smtp, whatever... but that has sufficient design to invoke a mod_python handler, so that the pop/3 could be implemented in python, or whatever would be added on top.. (or potentially the pop/3 could be added directly to the protocol module) the basic idea is that apache2 by default accepts http like connections, which aren't conducive to the synchronous communication of telnet.. keep-alive is vaguely similar but not good enough for the purposes of allowing a telnet or pop/3 gateway i've never looked at the apache2 api before so i'm just digging into that today _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus
