ndar_update_keys.py

1. Downloads NDAR command-line download manager, used to generate aws credentials from an NDAR username/password.
2. Downloads s3cmd from s3tools.org (https://github.com/s3tools/s3cmd)
3. Writes configuration files for s3cmd and for Amazon's command-line tool, using credentials generated from the download manager
4. s3cmd requires Python 2.6 or higher, and requires some prerequisite libraries; tested with Python2.7

To Use (run each time you want new keys):

python ndar_update_keys.py

After initial run:

1. On Linx/Unix

cd ~/ndar_toolkit/s3cmd-master
python setup.py install

2. On Windows

cd %HOME%/ndar_toolkit/s3cmd-master
python setup.py install

Now you can use s3cmd.
