Well, you can just do it from DOS:
c:\> dir /s/b/a abc.txt
Just use os.walk() and check the list of files returned at each
directory-level iteration.
ROOT = "c:\\"
fname = "abc.txt".lower()
for p, d, f in os.walk(ROOT):
for fn in f:
if fn.lower() == fname:
print os.path.join(p, f)
# break
You might also investigate using os.path.normcase() instead of
..lower()
