Re: Twisted vs. CherryPy vs. ??? for light-weight web servers

me to serve html or xml data for light webservices. Or is CherryPy just as
good?
You haven't described the problem you want to solve in very much detail. I
can't tell, for example, why I shouldn't recommend that you use Apache instead
of CherryPy or Twisted or anything else. Apache has a huge user community,
lots of documentation, and lots of developers fixing its bugs and making it
work well. What are you trying to do that would make Apache a bad choice?

I have just recently discovered CherryPy and Kid (many kudos to the respective developers!) and am tinkering with them to see what I can come up with.

I've been trying to get my CherryPy server to authenticate users against our network. I've managed to cobble together a simple function that uses our LDAP server to validate the username and password entered by the user: # ldap.py from win32com.client import GetObject ADS_SECURE_AUTHENTICATION = 1
