if you bind the server socket to 127.0.0.1, only inbound connections (i.e.,
connections from the localhost to itself) are allowed.
even if you run on the same server, but use the server's external IP or
name, it will fail.
you have to bind IPADDR_ANY=0.0.0.0 (in python, the empty string) in order
to connect from a remote machine.
>>> import socket
>>> s=socket.socket()
>>> s.bind(("localhost", 17777))
>>> s.listen(1)
>>> s2=socket.socket()
>>> s2.connect(("localhost", 17777))
>>> s.accept()
(<socket._socketobject object at 0x7fdb39921750>, ('127.0.0.1', 38872))
>>> s3=socket.socket()
>>> s3.connect(("192.168.1.143", 17777)) # this is the external IP of
local host
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/socket.py", line 224, in meth
return getattr(self._sock,name)(*args)
socket.error: [Errno 111] Connection refused
in other words, you're not doing anything wrong. btw, in this case, you
don't have to pass a hostname at all, it defaults to "".
also, IPython has known issues with rpyc, so i'd use the vanilla
interpreter if i were you.
hope this gets you started
