Nope.. hit a brick wall there I'm afraid. My own server works great - but poser won't respond while the server is in operation, it requires the script to exit first.

I'll take a look at your TKinter workaround, see if I can't get some ideas there. I've only been coding python for about a week now so I'm still learning, admittedly I'm digging through some docs to find all the code references you used.. lol..

I was also thinking of "reversing" the flow a bit, but I'm not sure how feasible that will be. Rather than having the server "listening" for incoming sockets see if I can't use a keyboard interrupt or some other message handler to queue the server and let it know an update is needed, then have the server make the connection to the client software and send the appropriate info.

Not sure how feasible that will be, but it was a thought that occurred to me at about 3 am after a few 2 litres of Moutain Dew.. lol..

Well, back to the drawing board... lol..
