I have a project to from a windows box scan a network attached storage
filesystem for the presence of media files. The app must then record
this info. From this recording 150 servers must read in order to stay
current as to what is on the file system. It seems trivial but the
java goons at work are hemming and hawing. How would a lisper handle
this?

Hand grenades. No need to aim.

I would give them an energy drink. If they still have no idea,
give them a consciousness-enhancing drug.

Do it in bash!
$ MEDIA_TYPES="mp3 ogg mpg mov"
$ for type in $MEDIA_TYPES

Seriously, I have some gnu-emacs lisp that walks a directory tree
looking for files that match a filter, and returns their full paths in
list form, like this:
(loop for file in (files-in-below-directory "c:/temp" ".cmd")
do (print file))
"c:/temp/stopallservices.cmd"
"c:/temp/startallservices.cmd"
"c:/temp/scripts/sql/cleanup/DeleteTrades.cmd"
"c:/temp/scripts/sql/cleanup/CleanupTrades.cmd"
"c:/temp/scripts/oracle/Restore.cmd"
"c:/temp/scripts/oracle/ResetPassword.cmd"
"c:/temp/scripts/oracle/ImpTables.cmd"
"c:/temp/scripts/oracle/DeleteTrades.cmd"
"c:/temp/c++/dtcc/secexit.cmd"
nil
You want me to send it to you?
