NAME

CURLOPT_KRBLEVEL - FTP kerberos security level

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Deprecated. It serves no purpose anymore.

Pass a char pointer as parameter. Set the kerberos security level for
FTP; this also enables kerberos awareness. This is a string that
should match one of the following: clear, safe, confidential or
private. If the string is set but does not match one of these,
private is used. Set the string to NULL to disable kerberos support
for FTP.

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