It should only be readable by user. + +\fIlevel\fP should be set to one of the values described below. + +.IP CURL_NETRC_OPTIONAL +The use of your \fI~/.netrc\fP file is optional, and information in the URL is +to be preferred. The file will be scanned for the host and user name (to +find the password only) or for the host only, to find the first user name and +password after that \fImachine\fP, which ever information is not specified in +the URL. + +Undefined values of the option will have this effect. +.IP CURL_NETRC_IGNORED +The library will ignore the file and use only the information in the URL. + +This is the default. +.IP CURL_NETRC_REQUIRED +This value tells the library that use of the file is required, to ignore the +information in the URL, and to search the file for the host only. +.SH DEFAULT +CURL_NETRC_IGNORED +.SH PROTOCOLS +Most +.SH EXAMPLE +TODO +.SH AVAILABILITY +Always +.SH RETURN VALUE +Returns CURLE_OK +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR CURLOPT_USERPWD "(3), " CURLOPT_USERNAME "(3), " |
