I assume you're talking about Apache here. Apache doesn't "redirect" you to
any specific file for "DirectoryIndex", it just checks for and uses a file by
default when a directory is requested.

The whole point with that action is to hide that information from the client
and there is simply no way libcurl can figure that out, as nothing besides
Apache itself can and will know that.

Sorry.
