First, although you defined init() are you sure you ran it?
ie by calling modname.init()?

Second, init() ties to open an existing file(default mode 
is read(r)). So unless the file existed already Python won't 
open it. But that should raise an IOError...

Err, Which name? Which object? You haven't created 
any objects in your module...
