Conch is a Python-based implementation of SSHv2 that can be used for secure remote network access.
The Twisted Conch project is an SSHv2 implementation that is entirely written in Python. SSH is a protocol that was designed to make remote access to shells and commands possible. However, the protocol is versatile enough to allow tasks such as TCP forwarding to generic filesystem access.
One of the significant advantages of the Conch implementation is that, because it is written in Python, it interfaces seamlessly with other Python projects like imagination. Conch also boasts an implementation of the telnet and vt102 protocols. It has support for line-editing behaviors that are basic.
Additionally, the release features a new implementation of Twisted's Manhole application. This implementation has server-side input history and interactive syntax coloring. It is worth noting that Conch is available under the MIT Free Software license.
This release now supports the "expect" functionality of the in-memory terminal emulator, and it is equipped with timeouts. The SSH server and client are now approximately five times faster when it comes to bulk-data transfers. Overall, Conch is an excellent SSHv2 implementation that is worth a try.
