Ian, Thanks for the reply and I apologize for my continuing ignorance. Here is my current situation... I've written a servlet, call it MYServlet, which is a subclass of XMLRPCServlet. In that servlet, I have a method that does a Python 'exec' and adds a variable to the Python globals(). From a Java client, I connect to MYServlet and execute some cmd, say, foo=1. From another client, I connect to MYServlet and execute foo=2. When I check the value of foo from the first client, the value of foo is 2. What I want is to be able to connect to the same MYServlet (same URL addr) from different clients and have independent Python interpreters running. I thought this would entail a factory servlet somehow. I'm lacking some basic understanding about Webware/WebKit. I should also mention that I'm running the 'AppServer' which seems to fire off nine threads of 'python Launch.py ThreadedAppServer' thanks, Randy ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
