If IDLE is so unhelpful as to not clarify where in this code the syntax error
is, I suggest you use a more helpful tool.
Or even... why not just run POX on your local machine and load up this module
to get a helpful error message from Python which will point out close to
exactly where the syntax error is? I can't imagine that would be any more time
and trouble than asking the POX list to act as a Python syntax checker.
All that said, it appears you have unbalanced parentheses on the line where you
set "Host1 IP address". Remove the first opening "(". Maybe that will help.
