There is a slight risk that the client might be talking to a server on a remote host while there is a similar server running on the local machine. That (local) server then might use a file by the same name as the file on the remote server the client wants to operate on. In that (unlikely) case I would mix up things big time... -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
