Re: Getting to an SSH account over a HTTP proxy
problem. I do not want to create my own SSH client and, AFAICT, there is no SSH client in Twisted. The library also seem to have some problems with handling HTTP proxies in a transparent way:http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/1774 -- mvh Björn There is a ssh implementation in twisted. http://twistedmatrix.com/users/z3p/files/conch-talk.html Are you able to authenticate and run commands using a ssh client on port 80? I will try to post an example if possible. -N -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Things get a little more complicated if you have to authenticate with the proxy first. The proxy in question requires authentication. Do you mean that I should be able to write something that handles the communication to the proxy and then run a library like paramiko over that? I have no idea how to do that. -- mvh Björn -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
