Curl download all files in a directory

Question

I am using PHP Curl to grab files from a url. Currently the file names are hard coded and I am trying to make it so that it downloads all the log files in a specific directory. Any point in the right direction would be nice. Thank you.

Please note that I have "Read" wright to a directory, I don't have FTP access or anything else.

Server_url : http://192.168.2.45/logfiles/
Server : server1
Files in that directory : 140512 ... 150316.log and growing


<?php
$server_url = $_GET['server_url'];
$server = $_GET['server'];
//This needs to be changed to get all files
for($i = 140512; $i <= 150316; $i++) {

    $id = base64_encode($i);
    $file_name = $server_url.$i.'.log';
    curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$file_name);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); // return data as string

    // disable peer verification
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);

    // disable host verification
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, FALSE);

    // spoof a real browser client string
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)");
    $output = curl_exec($ch); // capture data into $output variable
    if(!dir('sites/'.$server.'_LOGS')){
        mkdir('sites/'.$server.'_LOGS');
    }
    if( $output != false){
        file_put_contents('sites/'.$server.'_LOGS'.'/u_ex' . base64_decode($id) . '.log', $output );
    }
    curl_close($ch);
}
?>

Curl supports ftp, you can use it to get the file list and then download each file. I found an example in a previous answer using php curl here downloading all the files in a directory with cURL.
