    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.
