You can't share them among processes either, so I don't see any advantage either way on that. Besides his database library, the standard Python distribution comes with everything needed to build portable multi-threaded socket servers, in particular, one that runs on the O.P.'s Windows platform. The same is not true of multi-process servers. -- --Bryan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
