The debian package name is "python-crypto", and if you installed the Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) tahoe-lafs package, you should already have it. The dependency chain is: tahoe-lafs -> python-twisted -> python-twisted-conch->python-crypto The relevant section in the Tahoe docs (docs/frontends/FTP-and-SFTP.txt) says: The Tahoe SFTP server requires the Twisted "Conch" component (a "conch" is a twisted shell, get it?). Many Linux distributions package the Conch code separately: debian puts it in the "python-twisted-conch" package. Conch requires the "pycrypto" package, which is a Python+C implementation of many cryptographic functions (the debian package is named "python-crypto"). In short, if you follow the "Configuring SFTP Access" instructions in the docs, it ought to work for your karmic box without installing anything extra. Did that fail somehow? cheers, -Brian _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list tahoe-dev@allmydata.org http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
