./xx.py: line 1: import: command not found

It’s not an issue related to authentication at the first step. Your import is not working. So, try writing this on first line:

#!/usr/bin/python

and for the time being run using

python xx.py

For you here is one explanation:

>>> abc = "Hei Buddy"
>>> print "%s" %abc
Hei Buddy
>>> 

>>> print "%s" %xyz

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#6>", line 1, in <module>
    print "%s" %xyz
NameError: name 'xyz' is not defined

At first, I initialized abc variable and it works fine. On the otherhand, xyz doesn’t work as it is not initialized!
