Instead of
ret = adm.GetDataSet("172.16.145.16",dataset)
print dataset
do this:
ret, dataset = adm.GetDataSet("172.16.145.16")
print dataset
It's equivalent to passing a reference in other languages.

# The following will fail with a type mismatch on the dataset variable.
# The GetDataSet method in the adm instance expects the dataset as a

# Python does a pass by value passing 0 which will fail.
ret = adm.GetDataSet("172.16.145.16",dataset)
print dataset
Is there anyway to convince python to pass by ref?
