I see, that wasn't clear in your original post. You should look at the os.walk function if you want to know how to traverse a directory tree (maybe you are already doing this). Also, for security reasons, it's getting somewhat uncommon, and is generally not a good idea to run an ftpd these days, even on a LAN. It's more usual these days to transfer all files by rcp or rsync tunnelled through ssh. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
