Many thanks. I actually realized this while building the example. My  
fault. So finally i've managed to import hdfs, and the hdfs.py does  
export this method
hdfsConnect = _hdfs.hdfsConnect

and
nm  _hdfs.so
has the line
0000000000004390 T hdfsConnect

yet, when i run
import hdfs
hdfs.hdfsConnect("default",0")

i get   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'hdfsConnect'

What could be the problem?

Thank you for your time.
