Read and List the Files from Remote Webserver Path

Question

Hi All,
I have requirement where i need to Read and List the files from a Folder of Remote webserver path using JAVA.
Remote webserver is within the network only...No Firewall and also Access is given to Read the folder. No Issues on this.
Folder will just contain some PDF files...
I just need to display the PDF file names available in the Folder..
No need to read the PDF File...Only required to read the folder to list the file names in it.
Looking forward some workaround to this.
Thanks and Regards.

I need to read the folder from a webserver path of different machine...
File dir = new File( prop.getProperty("inputPath"));
File[] files = dir.listFiles(fileFilter);     
final String match=siteName;
     final String type=reportType;
     Calendar c1 = Calendar.getInstance();
     c1.add(Calendar.MONTH, - Integer.parseInt(prop.getProperty("filterMonths"))); //Filters reportes generated in last X months (X picked from config file)           
     final long filterDate = c1.getTime().getTime();           
     FileFilter fileFilter = new FileFilter() {
     public boolean accept(File file) {
     long fileLastModiDate = file.lastModified();      
     if((fileLastModiDate >= filterDate) && (file.getName().toLowerCase().startsWith(match)) && ( (type.equals("M") && file.getName().indexOf("WIP")==-1) || ((!type.equals("M") && file.getName().indexOf("WIP")!=-1)) ) ) {                        
          return true;
     }else {
          return false;
Here it works fine if the input path is local machine..
But i need to know how to give the input path as WEBSERVER PATH of different machine??
