I need to update these instructions, thanks for hinting me at that.

You will need to install the crypto packages for Python. Depending on your version of Python,
you will need to install a specific version. If you're using the stock Python of MacOS X Snow
Leopard, the Python version is 2.6 and you need to install "py26-crypto":

	sudo port install py26-crypto

Please let me know if this fixes your problem.
