CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC(3)	    Library Functions Manual	  CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC - switch off SSL again with FTP after auth

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC,
			       long how);

DESCRIPTION
     If  enabled,  this option makes libcurl use CCC (Clear Command Channel). It
     shuts down the SSL/TLS layer after authenticating. The rest of the  control
     channel  communication remains unencrypted. This allows NAT routers to fol-
     low the FTP transaction. Pass a long using one of the values below

     CURLFTPSSL_CCC_NONE
	    do not attempt to use CCC.

     CURLFTPSSL_CCC_PASSIVE
	    Do not initiate the shutdown, but wait for the server to do  it.  Do
	    not send a reply.

     CURLFTPSSL_CCC_ACTIVE
	    Initiate the shutdown and wait for a reply.

DEFAULT
     CURLFTPSSL_CCC_NONE

PROTOCOLS
     This functionality affects ftp only

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();

	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/file.txt");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USE_SSL, CURLUSESSL_CONTROL);
	 /* go back to clear-text FTP after authenticating */
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FTP_SSL_CCC, CURLFTPSSL_CCC_ACTIVE);
	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }
