Multi Threaded TCP server in Python

Question

I have created a simple multi threaded tcp server using python\'s threding module. This server creates a new thread each time a new client is connected.

#!/u         


        

Answer 1

You should pass the client sock to the thread like you do with the ip address and the port:

class ClientThread(threading.Thread):

    def __init__(self, ip, port, socket):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)
        self.ip = ip
        self.port = port
        self.socket = socket
        print "[+] New thread started for "+ip+":"+str(port)

    def run(self):
        # use self.socket to send/receive

...
(clientsock, (ip, port)) = tcpsock.accept()
newthread = ClientThread(ip, port, clientsock)
...
