[pyOpenSSL] FTPS client

[Eric J. <eri...@fl...>]

Hello,

I need an FTPS client that will work against the WS_FTP Server from
Ipswitch (http://www.ipswitch.com/Products/WS_FTP-Server/index.html)

It appears that I might be able to use one included with the
M2Crypto module, but I'd rather see if I can get one (or write
my own) with pyOpenSSL.  I like it's design goal better that
M2Crypto AND there are Debian packages for it!

Does anyone know if a pyOpenSSL FTPS client exists, or have
any pointers on how to get started writing my own?

Thanks in advance,
Eric

Writing your own shouln't be hard - you'll need pyOpenSSL 0.5 or CVS though. 
The main thing that makes FTL/TLS difference is, I think, that when the 
server connects back to the client, the client is the one that initializes 
TLS, not the server, so you need to separate out TLS connect from TCP 
connect. Reading M2Crypto version should show you how to do it in any case.
