I see this: $ python3 shaunak.bangale.py Connecting... Connection succeeded Traceback (most recent call last): File "shaunak.bangale.py", line 23, in ssl_sock.write(bytes(initiation_command, 'UTF-8')) NameError: name 'initiation_command' is not defined Strictly speaking, I don't think you are having a Python problem. * Are you absolutely certain you are (or your IDE is) executing the same code you are writing? * How would you be able to tell? Close your IDE. Run the code on the command-line. * How much time have you taken to work out what the interpreter is telling you? Good luck, -Martin -- Martin A. Brown http://linux-ip.net/
