Welcome to web2py! We're glad you're here. 1) To install win32 python extensions, the easiest way is to download and run the exe from:
http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=78018 ...that corresponds to the version of Python you use. Generally, when you see a setup.py script, you use that to install the package by upzipping the whole thing to a directory and then running: setup.py install. Some packages will complain if you don't have a compiler installed because they want to compile some speedups. In most cases you can run: setup.py install --without-speedups ...to get around that. 2) Nope. I tested your script and it works just fine as it is. But it only accepts IP addresses (no domain names). 3) I recommend that you use a more cross-platform solution.
