Take a few minutes to learn some Unix -- after transfering all the log
files (say using ftp "mget *.LOG*") you can mass-rename the log files
using a single pipeline.  Here's one way (not necessarily the best) which
assumes the LOG files are in the current-directory:
 
   find . -name '*.LOG*' -maxdepth 1 -print \
     | awk '{print $1,tolower($1)}' \
     | xargs -t -n2 mv
 
(This isn't that conceptually different from an equivalent CMS Pipelines
solution.)
