Socks server and client code in Python (Twisted?)

[Ben Kial]

I'd like to create a Socks (4 or 5) server and client program using
Python. Someone suggested me to use Twisted. Does anybody have any
sample code for Socks server and client in Python?

Thanks in advance,

Ben

Re: Socks server and client code in Python (Twisted?)

The answer may depend somewhat on whether your app is doing mostly
storage (filessystem) or calculations (cpu).

If you need to handle a fair number of sockets but do little
processing, you may wish to look at the standard modules
asyncore/asynchat.

But Twisted is not a bad advice :o) Maybe a little more threshold to
get started and you will have to co-deploy it with your app.
