I've work in embedded systems and systems programming for hardware interfaces to date. For fun and personal knowledge, recently I've been trying to learn more about server programming after getting my hands wet with Erlang.

Hello! I want to write a simple P2P test app which uses HTTP as underlying protocol. The app has to decide on demand, if it should act as a HTTP server, or as a HTTP client. The classic way which I am aware of, would be to deploy the app on some existing HTTP server. But this is the wrong way for my intention. It has to be the other wa...
I have a Django application I'm developing that must make a system call to an external program on the server. In creating the command for the system call, the application takes values from a form and uses them as parameters for the call. I suppose this means that one can essentially use bogus parameters and write arbitrary commands for t...

My problem is that the server would obviously need to support more than one simultaneous connection. The current implementation I have now supports only one. This is the basic,...
How do VoIP services, such as Skype and Yahoo, connect to landlines? We have a server connected to a landline using asterisk, so I'm thinking this server will bridge our VoIP conversation and connect it to a landline. But if this is the case, wouldn't Skype need a lot of servers placed around the whole world just to connect to landlin...
Hello, I tried to send a packet on the socket I use to listen for connections - i failed of course. I remember the days I coded in pascal that there was another socket I should send connections too,it was received after "Accept".
