-"""
-I{Paramiko} (a combination of the esperanto words for "paranoid" and "friend")
-is a module for python 2.5 or greater that implements the SSH2 protocol for
-secure (encrypted and authenticated) connections to remote machines. Unlike
-SSL (aka TLS), the SSH2 protocol does not require hierarchical certificates
-signed by a powerful central authority. You may know SSH2 as the protocol that
-replaced C{telnet} and C{rsh} for secure access to remote shells, but the
-protocol also includes the ability to open arbitrary channels to remote
-services across an encrypted tunnel. (This is how C{sftp} works, for example.)
-
-The high-level client API starts with creation of an L{SSHClient} object.
-For more direct control, pass a socket (or socket-like object) to a
-L{Transport}, and use L{start_server <Transport.start_server>} or
-L{start_client <Transport.start_client>} to negoatite
-with the remote host as either a server or client. As a client, you are
-responsible for authenticating using a password or private key, and checking
-the server's host key. I{(Key signature and verification is done by paramiko,
-but you will need to provide private keys and check that the content of a
-public key matches what you expected to see.)} As a server, you are
-responsible for deciding which users, passwords, and keys to allow, and what
-kind of channels to allow.
-
-Once you have finished, either side may request flow-controlled L{Channel}s to
-the other side, which are python objects that act like sockets, but send and
-receive data over the encrypted session.
-
-Paramiko is written entirely in python (no C or platform-dependent code) and is
-released under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).
