OK, the mechanics are pretty easy. sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) sock.settimeout(20) sock.connect((hostname, port)) my_t = paramiko.Transport(sock) my_t.connect(hostkey=None ,username=username, password=password, pkey=None) my_chan = my_t.open_session() my_chan.get_pty() my_chan.invoke_shell() my_sftp = paramiko.SFTP.from_transport(my_t) Now my_sftp is a paramiko sftp_client. See paramiko's sftp_client.py to see what it can do. Alan Isaac -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
