I think I missed something here: Python *does* have an XML-RPC server implementation (xmlrpclib.py), which is how Zope can do XML-RPC.
I was thinking that for real two-way communication, the workstations will also have to be XML-RPC servers, and while I know that Zope can do that I have no idea how hard it would be to get xmlrpclib working outside Zope.
There is an example server in the xmlrpclib distribution at http://www.pythonware.com/products/xmlrpc/index.htm In other words, getting a client side xmlrpc server is the easiest thing you are trying to do. Hope that helps, Toby Dickenson tdickenson@geminidataloggers.com
