Exception in thread Thread-9 (most likely raised during interpreter shutdown):
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/var/www/html/cssh.py", line 617, in ssh_connect
<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'BadAuthenticationType'

So you started several threads, and one of them was in them middle of connecting to somewhere when the program exited, correct?

This happens on interpreter shutdown, even though I do try to catch the AttributeError exception:

try:
     fake = paramiko.BadAuthenticationType
     try:
self.conobj.connect(self.ip, username=self.username, key_filename=self.sshprivkey, port=self.port, timeout=opts.timeout)
         loginsuccess = True
     except paramiko.BadAuthenticationType, e: # this is line 617
         self.conerror = str(e)
     except paramiko.SSHException, e:
         self.conerror = str(e)
     except socket.timeout, e:
         self.conerror = str(e)
     except socket.error, e:
         self.conerror = str(e)
except AttributeError:
     # this happens on interpreter shutdown
     self.conerror = 'shutdown'


It's clear what happens: paramiko gets its attributes cleared or the module perhaps gets unloaded and as result "paramiko" label leads to None, which obviously has no attribute BadAuthenticationType.

As part of the interpreter shutdown procedure, module globals are set to None. Code that might be executed in those very precarious circumstances should NOT reference any globals.

However, even though this is surrounded by try .. except AttributeError block, it evidently isn't catch. How to catch that exception? Or at least preven displaying this message?

You could keep a local reference to those global names; by example, by adding 'fake' default arguments:

    def ssh_connect(self, other, arguments,
          paramiko=paramiko, socket=socket):
       ...

or perhaps:

    def ssh_connect(self, other, arguments):
       BadAuthenticationType = paramiko.BadAuthenticationType
       socket_timeout = socket.timeout
       try:
           ...
       except BadAuthenticationType, e:
           ...
       except socket_timeout, e:
           ...
