Tlslite is a very well done and promising package, but in its present form it's not really complete. It's missing important functionality (the ability to validate certificates) that it relies on complex 3rd party C libraries to provide. Hopefully tlslite will be able to do this by itself sometime soon. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Unfortunately that's SSH2 only. It is indeed pure Python http://www.lag.net/paramiko/ However it requires the PyCrypto module. http://www.amk.ca/python/code/crypto Can you briefly outline how to use this as a client to upload and down files from a server using SFTP?

FTP over SSL (explicit encryption)
I am looking for a pure Python secure ftp solution. Does it exist? I would have thought that the existence of OpenSSL would imply yes but I cannot find anything. ftplib does not seem to provide any secure services. I know about fptutil http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/ftputil but that does not seem to provide any secure services. (Btw, Matt Croydon's intro is helpful for newbies: http://postneo.com/stories/2003/01/01/beyondTheBasicPythonFtplibExample.html ) I know about M2Crypto http://sandbox.rulemaker.net/ngps/m2/ but that requires installing SWIG and OpenSSL. (If someone tells me they have found this trivial under Windows, I am willing to try ... ) I would have thought that this was a common need with a standard Python solution, so I suspect I'm overlooking something obvious.

I would have thought that the existence of OpenSSL would imply yes but I cannot find anything. ftplib does not seem to provide any secure services. Indeed. If you want SFTP, just make a copy of ftplib and modify so it will use an SSL socket instead of a normal socket. After that, only some minor point may remain. [...]I know about M2Crypto http://sandbox.rulemaker.net/ngps/m2/ but that requires installing SWIG and OpenSSL. (If someone tells me they have found this trivial under Windows, I am willing to try ... ) I guess SFTP should work on Windows as well. I would have thought that this was a common need with a standard Python solution, so I suspect I'm overlooking something obvious. AFAIK you're not. I'm having a look at FTP/S right now. That's a little more complicated, but it seems doable. If I succeed, I guess I'll donate the stuff as an extension to ftplib. --eric -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
