I can, but what would be the least complicated way to do so?

The only solution I have so far is quite complicated, a daemon that opens 
one connection per user / session to the telnet server, and accepts one 
connection per mod_python thread. For the daemon<->python connections I 
would have to implement some kind of a protocol that allows sharing the 
connection for all users. Alternative would be to use one connection per 
user per thread to the daemon. Either way it is a lot of overhead.

Or is there some easier way in mod_python to implement an independent 
persistent backend daemon object?
