Name : python-paramiko Product : Fedora 14 Version : 1.7.7.1 Release : 1.fc14 URL : http://www.lag.net/paramiko/ Summary : SSH2 protocol library for python Description : Paramiko (a combination of the esperanto words for "paranoid" and "friend") is a module for python 2.3 or greater that implements the SSH2 protocol for secure (encrypted and authenticated) connections to remote machines. Unlike SSL (aka TLS), the SSH2 protocol does not require heirarchical certificates signed by a powerful central authority. You may know SSH2 as the protocol that replaced telnet and rsh for secure access to remote shells, but the protocol also includes the ability to open arbitrary channels to remote services across an encrypted tunnel. (This is how sftp works, for example.) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: v1.7.7.1 (George) 21may11 ------------------------- * Make the verification phase of SFTP.put optional (Larry Wright) * Patches to fix AIX support (anonymous) * Patch from Michele Bertoldi to allow compression to be turned on in the client constructor. * Patch from Shad Sharma to raise an exception if the transport isn't active when you try to open a new channel. * Stop leaking file descriptors in the SSH agent (John Adams) * More fixes for Windows address family support (Andrew Bennetts) * Use Crypto.Random rather than Crypto.Util.RandomPool (Gary van der Merwe, #271791) * Support for openssl keys (tehfink) * Fix multi-process support by calling Random.atfork (sugarc0de) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Jul 6 2011 Jeffrey C.
