Okay. I see what you're doing with this. Unfortunately, when I run this I 
get this error:

>>>
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "C:\Program Files\Python20\Code\anotherftpthing.py", line 22, in ?
    dirs.append(string.split(x)[-1])
IndexError: list index out of range

I've been playing with this for the past couple hours, but haven't quite 
figured out how to get around this.
