# NAME
CURLOPT_SSH_KNOWNHOSTS - filename holding the SSH known hosts
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSH_KNOWNHOSTS, char *fname);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a null-terminated string holding the filename of the
known_host file to use. The known_hosts file should use the OpenSSH file
format as supported by libssh2. If this file is specified, libcurl only
accepts connections with hosts that are known and present in that file, with a
matching public key. Use CURLOPT_SSH_KEYFUNCTION(3) to alter the default
behavior on host and key matches and mismatches.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
# DEFAULT
NULL
# PROTOCOLS
SFTP and SCP
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "sftp://example.com/file");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSH_KNOWNHOSTS,
"/home/clarkkent/.ssh/known_hosts");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
