# NAME
CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER - command to use instead of USER with FTP
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER,
char *cmd);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a char pointer as parameter, pointing to a string which is used to
authenticate if the usual FTP "USER user" and "PASS password" negotiation
fails. This is currently only known to be required when connecting to
Tumbleweed's Secure Transport FTPS server using client certificates for
authentication.
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
option.
# DEFAULT
NULL
# PROTOCOLS
FTP
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/foo.bin");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FTP_ALTERNATIVE_TO_USER, "two users");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
~~~
# AVAILABILITY

CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
