If you are not averse to rolling your own then this may do the trick:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; my $root = 'c:/cluster1/'; # must have trailing path delim! my $delim = '/'; my @dirs = ($root); my @files; for my $path (@dirs){ opendir ( DIR, $path ) or next; # skip dirs we can't read while (my $file = readdir DIR) { # skip the dot files next if $file eq '.' or $file eq '..'; # skip symbolic links next if -l $path.$file; if ( -d $path.$file ) { # add the dir to our dir list push @dirs, $path.$file.$delim; } else { # add the file to file list push @files, $path.$file; } } closedir DIR; } print "Directory list\n\n"; print "$_\n" for sort @dirs; print "\n\nFile List\n\n"; print "$_\n" for sort @files;

This works by adding found directories to the end of the @dirs list we are iterating over. BTW I don't quite understand how you get to a directory that does not exist but you can change the default behaviour of this code when it can't opendir a DIR to whatever you want. Just change the next.....
