NAME

6       CURLOPT_FTP_SKIP_PASV_IP - ignore the IP address in the PASV response
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <curl/curl.h>
10
11       CURLcode  curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_SKIP_PASV_IP, long
12       skip);
13

DESCRIPTION

15       Pass a long. If skip is set to 1, it instructs libcurl to not  use  the
16       IP  address  the  server suggests in its 227-response to libcurl's PASV
17       command when libcurl connects the data connection. Instead libcurl will
18       re-use  the same IP address it already uses for the control connection.
19       But it will use the port number from the 227-response.
20
21       This option thus allows libcurl to work around broken server  installa‐
22       tions  that  due to NATs, firewalls or incompetence report the wrong IP
23       address back. Setting the option also  reduces  the  risk  for  various
24       sorts of client abuse by malicious servers.
25
26       This  option  has  no  effect  if PORT, EPRT or EPSV is used instead of
27       PASV.
