Hello all, I'm trying to achieve the following: I have two hosts A and B. A establishes a remote port forwarding tunnel on B, i.e. B is the one a port is forwarded on to some where else and A is the one that sets up the tunnel.

Escape arguments for paramiko.SSHClient().exec_command

What is the best way to escape a string for safe usage as a command-line argument?

Python: Getting "EOFError" when using paramiko sftp across modules as a global variable in a custom module

I'm using paramiko to transfer files with SFTP, on a apache server with mod_python. It works fine if I open the SFTP connection in the function called by mod_python (ex. index(req) ). But when I have 10-15 files that all uses a SFTP connection, I want to use a module that starts this connection. I have tried to make a function that re...
