[Twisted-Python] pb server how to get client IP address

Yes this works find in my server for my admin interface (simple telenet
bases) that use protocol.ServerFactory() and then use LineReceiver. 

But how do I use getPeer() in a Perspective Broker server for example
http://www.twistedmatrix.com/documents/examples/pbbenchserver.py

Excuse me questions but I new to Twisted.

>From the Protocol object, the .transport offers a pair of methods called
getHost() and getPeer(). So something like this should work:

==== BEGIN
from twisted.internet import reactor, protocol

class MyProtocol(protocol.Protocol):
    def connectionMade(self):
        print "connection from", self.transport.getPeer()

f = protocol.ServerFactory()
f.protocol = MyProtocol
reactor.listenTCP(9111, f)
reactor.run()
==== END

When I run this on my system, and connect with 'nc localhost 9111', I get:
  % /tmp/p.py 
  connection from ('INET', '127.0.0.1', 38002)

The value it returns depends upon the kind of transport, but TCP connections
will give you a tuple of ('INET', hostname, port), where 'hostname' is a
dotted-quad IP address.

I'll add this to the FAQ.

cheers,
