ok here is the problem... I don't know what is the correct way... The
only demos i have from the paramiko library use a hostkeyfile. since i
don't have that i thought i would use the get_remote_key to get the
key and then connect it using the code in the demo.. But clearly
nothing is working...I should not HAVE to use the key since i should
be able to authenticate using the password...

Can you please suggest the right way to go ?

Thanks for your time !
