CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT(3)	    Library Functions Manual	  CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT - account info for FTP

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, char *account);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass  a  pointer  to a null-terminated string (or NULL to disable). When an
     FTP server asks for "account data" after username	and  password  has  been
     provided, this data is sent off using the ACCT command.

     The  application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
     option.

     Using this option multiple times makes the last  set  string  override  the
     previous ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.

DEFAULT
     NULL

PROTOCOLS
     This functionality affects ftp only

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://example.com/foo.bin");

	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FTP_ACCOUNT, "human-resources");

	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);

	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }

AVAILABILITY
     Added in curl 7.13.0
