pythonpath

I just rented a VPS from Linode, it has python2.5 and ubuntu 8.04

When I ho to python shell

python
import urllib

I get

ImportError: No module named urllib

What can be the reason? How can I add this module to python? Isn't it prepackaged with the basic version?

Can it be pythonpath problem? How I can test pythonpath?
