Re: SSL through python. possible ?

ok i have tried around a lot but no luck. I think M2Crypto is my best
option except it requires a minimum of python 2.4 which i don't have.

What i am trying to do is to do an FTP transfer that uses SSL
(username, password authentication) and not a certificate file. The
few example i have found of the Openssl module use a certificate for
authentication unlike what i want to do.

Komodo uses ssl to provide FTPS support (FTP over SSL), using the Python ssl socket library. From memory, I think there were problems trying to get FTPS to work on earlier versions of python (earlier than Python 2.4) and also a few problems working with Python 2.4 itself.

This code might provide some help (you can search for FTPS):
