In Python version 2 the agent plugin 'unitrends_replication' crashed with the error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "unitrends_replication.py", line 11, in <module>
    import urllib.request
ImportError: No module named request

The reason for this is that in previous Python versions "urllib.request" did not exist. This werk introduces an alternative handling of "urllib" for affected python versions.
