Annotation of embedaddon/curl/docs/cmdline-opts/disable-eprt.d, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       misho       1: Long: disable-eprt
                      2: Help: Inhibit using EPRT or LPRT
                      3: Protocols: FTP
                      4: ---
                      5: Tell curl to disable the use of the EPRT and LPRT commands when doing active
                      6: FTP transfers. Curl will normally always first attempt to use EPRT, then LPRT
                      7: before using PORT, but with this option, it will use PORT right away. EPRT and
                      8: LPRT are extensions to the original FTP protocol, and may not work on all
                      9: servers, but they enable more functionality in a better way than the
                     10: traditional PORT command.
                     11: 
                     12: --eprt can be used to explicitly enable EPRT again and --no-eprt is an alias
                     13: for --disable-eprt.
                     14: 
                     15: If the server is accessed using IPv6, this option will have no effect as EPRT
                     16: is necessary then.
                     17: 
                     18: Disabling EPRT only changes the active behavior. If you want to switch to
                     19: passive mode you need to not use --ftp-port or force it with --ftp-pasv.
