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