Hey folks, thanks for the extra thoughts.
The key frustration is that this script has worked fine when
communicating with our original Linux-based SFTP server--the problem
has cropped up after moving to a different server. Manually running
SFTP via the command-line from the box, and via a GUI on my Windows
desktop both work fine. It's only when I run the existing Python
script using Paramiko that there is a problem.
I'll try stackoverflow and then get to ripping out my last few hair
follicles.
Thanks,
Mark

Mark, what are the symptoms of the failure? Are you reproducing it
manually or just with your automation? Are you using the correct
modes (active/passive, bin/ascii)? Are you sure that you're using the
right kind of protocol and layer? I had hell finding a python library
that supported FTP over implicit SSL, which is different than explicit
SSL, SFTP (SSH FTP or SSH2 FTP) or TLS.
