Thanks for code. I am trying both of them, but I am crash to another
problem.
For socket modul example python report:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Documents and Settings\poupa\Plocha\listen2.py", line 5, in
<module>
    port.bind(('', 3883))
  File "<string>", line 1, in bind
error: (10048, 'Address already in use')


and for twisted example pythod report:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Documents and Settings\poupa\Plocha\listen2twisted.py",
line 8, in -toplevel-
    class PrintingProtocol(Protocol):
  File "C:\Documents and Settings\poupa\Plocha\listen2twisted.py",
line 28, in PrintingProtocol
    print repr("".join(self.received))
NameError: name 'self' is not defined

How can I solve this errors?
(for twisted I instal zope for python, pywin32 and twisted. all for
python 2.4)
