As long as support for the &quot;URL fopen wrapper&quot; is enabled when
you configure PHP (which it is unless you explicitly pass the
<option>--disable-url-fopen-wrapper</option> flag to configure (for versions
up to 4.0.3) or set <parameter>allow_url_fopen</parameter> to off in &php.ini;
(for newer versions)),
you can use HTTP and FTP URLs with most functions that take a
filename as a parameter, including the <function>require</function>
and <function>include</function> statements.

You can also write to files on an FTP as long you connect as a user

You might get the idea from the example above to use this
technique to write to a remote log, but as mentioned above, you
can only write to a new file using the URL fopen() wrappers. To
do distributed logging like that, you should take a look at

You might get the idea from the example above that you can use
