Multiple paths can be provided by separating them with ":" (e.g. +\&"path1:path2:path3"). The certificates must be in PEM format, and if curl is +built against OpenSSL, the directory must have been processed using the +c_rehash utility supplied with OpenSSL. Using --capath can allow +OpenSSL-powered curl to make SSL-connections much more efficiently than using +--cacert if the --cacert file contains many CA certificates. + +If this option is set, the default capath value will be ignored, and if it is +used several times, the last one will be used. |
