Set the actual name and password with the \fICURLOPT_USERPWD\fP option. (Added in 7.10.6) .RS .TP 5 -.B CURLHTTP_BASIC +.B CURLAUTH_BASIC HTTP Basic authentication. This is the default choice, and the only method that is in wide-spread use and supported virtually everywhere. This is sending the user name and password over the network in plain text, easily captured by others. .TP -.B CURLHTTP_DIGEST +.B CURLAUTH_DIGEST HTTP Digest authentication. Digest authentication is defined in RFC2617 and is a more secure way to do authentication over public networks than the regular old-fashioned Basic method. .TP -.B CURLHTTP_GSSNEGOTIATE +.B CURLAUTH_GSSNEGOTIATE HTTP GSS-Negotiate authentication. The GSS-Negotiate method was designed by Microsoft and is used in their web aplications. It is primarily meant as a support for Kerberos5 authentication but may be also used along with another authentication methods. For more information see IETF draft draft-brezak-spnego-http-04.txt. .TP -.B CURLHTTP_NTLM +.B CURLAUTH_NTLM HTTP NTLM authentication. A proprietary protocol invented and used by Microsoft. It uses a challenge-response and hash concept similar to Digest to prevent the password from being evesdropped. .TP -.B CURLHTTP_ANY +.B CURLAUTH_ANY This is a convenience macro that sets all bits and thus makes libcurl pick any it finds suitable. libcurl will automaticly select the one it finds most secure. .TP -.B CURLHTTP_ANYSAFE +.B CURLAUTH_ANYSAFE This is a convenience macro that sets all bits except Basic and thus makes libcurl pick any it finds suitable. libcurl will automaticly select the one it finds most secure. |
