Re: PyCrypto binaries -- nearly there..

Hi Alexandre,

That is a good hint! I tried it and here is the result:

Python 2.5 (release25-maint, Dec 19 2006, 23:22:00) [MSC v.1201 32 bit 
(ARM)] on win32
 >>> execfile('\\Flash 
Disk\\Programmabestanden\\Python25\\Lib\\demo_pda.py')
*** Unable to open host keys file
*** WARNING: Unknown host key!
*** Caught exception: <type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named mmap
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "\Flash Disk\Programmabestanden\Python25\Lib\demo_pda.py", line 
166, in <module>
    agent_auth(t, username)
  File "\Flash Disk\Programmabestanden\Python25\Lib\demo_pda.py", line 
53, in agent_auth
    agent = paramiko.Agent()
  File "\Flash Disk\Programmabestanden\Python25\lib\paramiko\agent.py", 
line 68, in __init__
    import win_pageant
  File "\Flash 
Disk\Programmabestanden\Python25\lib\paramiko\win_pageant.py", line 27, 
in <module>
    import mmap
ImportError: No module named mmap
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "\Flash Disk\Programmabestanden\Python25\Lib\demo_pda.py", line

    sys.exit(1)
  File "\Flash Disk\Programmabestanden\Python25\Lib\demo_pda.py", line 
41, in dummy_exit
    raise ExitError()
ExitError
 >>>


I looked on my __PC__ (as I guessed that if it worked on my PC, mmap 
should be called here too) for a file named mmap and for files with as 
content mmap, but found only test_mmap.py. So I'm not sure what should 
be concluded from this. Maybe that on my __PDA__ a different execution 
path is used, in which mmap is/should be imported, which results in the 
error message above.

Maybe you can conclude more from this error message.


Regards,

Marc
