I strongly dislike using try/except as a control-structure. I would
prefer you to use built-in function which return True/False.

Drew,
Sue mentioned that as well. This will not catch the case where the
clientdir
does not exist which will cause an exception.
I could:
if not os.path.exists(path) or not os.path.isdir(path):
continue
Then do the for loop which contains the os.listdir(path) call.
Do you still think that the os.path.isdir()/os.path.exists() is the
better
route then the try/except? If so then I'll make that change.
Thanks,
John

If it's a file, it'll return False and you can continue to the next
entry.
