CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPRT(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPRT(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPRT - use EPRT for FTP
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_USE_EPRT, long enabled);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. If the value is 1, it tells curl to use the EPRT command
when doing active FTP downloads (which is enabled by CURLOPT_FTP-
PORT(3)). Using EPRT means that it will first attempt to use EPRT be-
fore using PORT, but if you pass zero to this option, it will not try
using EPRT, only plain PORT.
If the server is an IPv6 host, this option will have no effect as EPRT
is necessary then.
