Did you try Google? Here's a few links that look like possibilities:

http://sandbox.rulemaker.net/ngps/m2/
http://pypgsql.sourceforge.net/misc/python-ssl.html
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ssl/
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/117004

If you have patience you can wait for Python 2.6 which will include a
new ssl module, otherwise there are a lot of third party libraries out
there which already binds OpenSSL for Python.

M2Crypto has since moved tohttp://chandlerproject.org/Projects/MeTooCrypto

Whoops...I just went with the first link Google gave me. The link I
gave doesn't mention that the project has moved. Looks like the one
you link to is the 9th link on my Google search using the terms:
"python m2crypto".

Sorry if I spread misinformation though.

Python 2.6. Ah, that sounds very nice. I would be happy to upgrade to
2.4 from 2.3.
My boss does not think we need to upgrade.

ok i have tried around a lot but no luck. I think M2Crypto is my best
option except it requires a minimum of python 2.4 which i don't have.

What i am trying to do is to do an FTP transfer that uses SSL
(username, password authentication) and not a certificate file. The
few example i have found of the Openssl module use a certificate for
authentication unlike what i want to do.

Anyone has any ideas ?

Komodo uses ssl to provide FTPS support (FTP over SSL), using the Python
ssl socket library. From memory, I think there were problems trying to
get FTPS to work on earlier versions of python (earlier than Python 2.4)
and also a few problems working with Python 2.4 itself.

This code might provide some help (you can search for FTPS):
