I'm not sure if HEAD would work.
Basically, I'm trying to read a directory's files.
After I confirm a file exists and doesn't have zero
size I check that it has the appropriate extension
for the directory then I add the directory address,
file name and extension to a table in our database.
Can you get someone on the remote server to do a
cd top_level_directory
ls -lR > ls-lR # or find -fls find-ls
gzip ls-lR # or gzip find-ls
periodically, and then you can grab and parse ls-lR.gz or
find-ls.gz?
