Hi,

I am using ubuntu lucid and i have started to learn python(vrs 3.1). I
am trying to make a tutorial code(see below) work but when i run the
code, open a terminal window and connect as client with telnet and
type somethings and hit enter, give me error below...(the terminal
says connection closed by foreign host)

if someone can help i will be glad...

thanx
