NAME

       curlftpfs - mount a ftp host as a local directory

SYNOPSIS

       curlftpfs [options] host path

DESCRIPTION

       The  program  curlftpfs  is  a  tool  to  mount  remote ftp hosts as local directories. It
       connects to the host FTP server and maps its directory structure to the path directory.

       curlftpfs is powered by libcurl for all  transfer-related  features.  See  libcurl(3)  for
       details.    The    filesystem    part    is    implemented    on   top   of   FUSE.    See
       http://fuse.sourceforge.net/ for details.

FTP OPTIONS

       -h/--help
              Print help options.

       -v/--verbose
              Make libcurl print verbose debug output.

       -V/--version
              Print curlftpfs, libcurl and fuse versions.

       -o     Options are specified with a -o flag  followed  by  a  comma  separated  string  of
              options.

              cacert=<file>
                     (SSL) Pass a string naming a file holding one or more certificates to verify
                     the peer with.

                     Note  that  option  is  by  default set to the system path  where  libcurl's
                     cacert bundle is assumed to be stored, as  established at build time.

              capath=<directory>
                     (SSL)  Tells  curlftpfs to use the specified certificate directory to verify
                     the peer. The certificates must be in PEM format,  and  the  directory  must
                     have  been  processed using  the  c_rehash  utility supplied  with  openssl.
                     Using capath can allow curlftpfs to make connections much  more  efficiently
                     than using  cacert  if the cacert file contains many CA certificates.

              cert=<certificate>
                     (SSL)  Tells  curlftpfs  to  use the specified certificate file. The default
                     format is "PEM" and can be changed with cert_type.

              cert_type=<type>
                     (SSL) Tells curlftpfs what certificate type the provided certificate is  in.
                     PEM, DER and ENG are recognized types.

              ciphers=<list of ciphers>
                     (SSL)  Specifies  which  ciphers  to use in the connection. The list must be
                     syntactically correct, it consists of one or more cipher  strings  separated
                     by  colons.  Commas  or spaces are also acceptable separators but colons are
                     normally used, , - and + can be  used  as operators.   Valid   examples   of
                     cipher  lists  include  'RC4-SHA',  ´SHA1+DES',  'TLSv1'  and 'DEFAULT'. The
                     default list is  normally set when you compile OpenSSL.

                     Read    up    on    SSL    cipher    list    details    on     this     URL:
                     http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html

              codepage=<name>
                     Sets the encoding the ftp server uses to encode file names.

              connect_timeout=<seconds>
                     Maximum time in seconds that you allow the connection to the server to take.
                     This only limits the connection phase, once  curlftpfs  has  connected  this
                     option is of no more use.

              custom_list=<command>
                     Command  used  by curlftpfs to list files. The default is "LIST -a" but some
                     servers might require extra options, e.g. "LIST -la".

              disable_eprt
                     Tell curlftpfs to disable the use of the EPRT and LPRT commands  when  doing
                     active  FTP  transfers.  Curlftpfs will normally always first attempt to use
                     EPRT, then LPRT before using PORT, but with this option, it  will  use  PORT
                     right  away.  EPRT and LPRT are extensions to the original FTP protocol, may
                     not work on all servers but enable more functionality in a better  way  than
                     the traditional PORT command.

              disable_epsv
                     Tell curlftpfs to disable the use of the EPSV command when doing passive FTP
                     transfers. This is the default.

              enable_epsv
                     Tell curlftpfs to enable the use of the EPSV command when doing passive  FTP
                     transfers. Curlftpfs will first attempt to use EPSV before PASV.

              engine=<name>
                     Select  the  OpenSSL crypto engine to use for cipher operations.  Use:
                     curl --engine list
                     to   print  a  list  of  build-time  supported engines.  Note  that  not all
                     (or  none) of the engines may be available at run-time.

              ftpfs_debug
                     Make curlftpfs print lots of debug information. Useful only  in  conjunction
                     with the -d option.

              ftp_method=<method>
                     Control  what method curlftpfs should use to reach a file on the server. The
                     method argument should be one of the following alternatives:

                     multicwd
                            curlftpfs does a single CWD operation for each path part in the given
                            URL.  For deep hierarchies this means very many commands. This is how
                            RFC1738 says it should be done. This is the default but  the  slowest
                            behavior.

                     singlecwd
                            curlftpfs  does  one  CWD  with  the  full  target directory and then
                            operates on the file "normally" (like in the multicwd case).

              ftp_port=<address>
                     Reverses the initiator/listener roles when connecting with ftp. This  switch
                     makes  curlftpfs  use  the  PORT  command instead of PASV. In practice, PORT
                     tells the server to connect to the  client's  specified  address  and  port,
                     while  PASV  asks  the  server  for  an  ip  address and port to connect to.
                     <address> should be one of:

                     interface
                            i.e "eth0" to specify which interface's IP address you want to use

                     IP address
                            i.e "192.168.10.1" to specify exact IP number

                     host name
                            i.e "my.host.domain" to specify machine

                     -      make curlftpfs pick the same IP address that is already used for  the
                            control connection

                     Disable  the  attempt  to  use  the  EPRT  command  instead of PORT by using
                     disable_eprt.  EPRT is really PORT++.

              httpproxy
                     Set the proxy type to HTTP. This is the default type.

              interface=<name>
                     Pass a string as  parameter.  This  set  the  interface  name   to   use  as
                     outgoing  network   interface.   The   name  can be an interface name, an IP
                     address or a host name.

              iocharset=<name>
                     Sets  the  charset  used  by  the  client  side  for  codepage  to   charset
                     translation.  Default: UTF8.

              ipv4   If   libcurl   is   capable  of resolving an address to multiple IP versions
                     (which it is if it is ipv6-capable), this option  tells libcurl  to  resolve
                     names  to  IPv4  addresses only.

              ipv6   If   libcurl   is   capable  of resolving an address to multiple IP versions
                     (which it is if it is ipv6-capable), this option  tells libcurl  to  resolve
                     names  to  IPv6  addresses only.

              key=<key>
                     (SSL)  Private key file name. Allows you to provide your private key in this
                     separate file. The   default  format  is  "PEM"  and  can  be  changed  with
                     key_type.

              key_type=<type>
                     (SSL)  Pass  a  string in the format of your private key. Supported  formats
                     are "PEM", "DER" and "ENG".

                     The  format  "ENG"  enables  you  to load the  private  key  from  a  crypto
                     engine.   In this case key is used as an identifier  passed to  the  engine.
                     You have to set the crypto engine with engine option.  "DER" format key file
                     currently  does not work because of a bug in OpenSSL.

              krb4=<level>
                     Enable  kerberos4  authentication  and  use.  The  level must be entered and
                     should be one of 'clear', 'safe', 'confidential'  or 'private'.  Should  you
                     use  a level that is not one of these, 'private' will instead be used.

                     This  option  requires  that  the libcurl library was built  with  kerberos4
                     support.  This is  not  very common.

              no_verify_hostname
                     (SSL) Curlftpfs will not verify  the  hostname  when  connecting  to  a  SSL
                     enabled server.

              no_verify_peer
                     (SSL)  Curlftpfs  will  not  verify the certificate when connecting to a SSL
                     enabled server.

              pass=<password>
                     (SSL) Pass phrase for the private key.

              proxy=<host[:port]>
                     Use specified HTTP proxy. If the port  number  is   not   specified,  it  is
                     assumed at port 1080.

                     This   option   overrides  existing environment variables that sets proxy to
                     use. If  there's  an  environment  variable  setting  a proxy, you  can  set
                     proxy to "" to override it.

                     This options implies the proxytunnel option.

                     Starting   with  libcurl version 7.14.1, the proxy host can be specified the
                     exact same way as the  proxy  environment   variables,   including  protocol
                     prefix (http://) and embedded user + password.

              proxytunnel
                     Tells  curlftpfs  to use a tunnel proxy. This option is implied by the proxy
                     option but you need to set it manually if  you  use  the  proxy  environment
                     variable.

              proxy_anyauth
                     Tells  curl  to  pick  a  suitable authentication method when  communicating
                     with the  given  proxy.   This   will   cause   an   extra  request/response
                     round-trip.

              proxy_basic
                     Tells curlftpfs to use HTTP Basic authentication when communicating with the
                     given proxy. Basic is the default authentication method  curlftpfs  is  used
                     with proxies.

              proxy_digest
                     Tells   curlftpfs  to use HTTP Digest authentication when communicating with
                     the given proxy.

              proxy_ntlm
                     Tells curlftpfs to use HTTP NTLM  authentication  when   communicating  with
                     the given proxy.

              proxy_user=<user:password>
                     Specify user and password to use for proxy authentication.

              skip_pasv_ip
                     Tell curlftpfs to not use the IP address the server suggests in its response
                     to curlftpfs's PASV command when curlftpfs  connects  the  data  connection.
                     Instead  curlftpfs  will  re-use the same IP address it already uses for the
                     control connection.

              socks4 Set the proxy type to SOCKS4.

              socks5 Set the proxy type to SOCKS5.

              ssl    Make curlftpfs use SSL/TLS for both control and data connections.

              sslv3  Forces curlftpfs to use SSL version 3 when negotiating  with  a  remote  SSL
                     server.

              ssl_control
                     Make curlftpfs use SSL/TLS only for the control connection.

              ssl_try
                     Curlftpfs  will try to use SSL/TLS for both the control and data connections
                     but if the server doesn't support it, it will still connect unencrypted.

              tcp_nodelay
                     Turn on the TCP_NODELAY option. See the  curl_easy_setopt(3)  man  page  for
                     details about this option.

              tlsv1  (SSL)  Forces  curlftpfs to use TLS version 1 when negotiating with a remote
                     TLS server.

              transform_symlinks
                     Append path to the absolute symlinks so that they still point inside the ftp
                     directory structure. Otherwise those links will very probably be broken.

              user=<user:password>
                     Specify   user  and  password  to  use for server authentication.  Overrides
                     netrc configuration.

              utf8   Try to transfer file list with UTF-8 encoding. Send  OPTS  UTF8  ON  at  the
                     beginning of file list transfer.

FUSE OPTIONS

       -d     Enable FUSE debug output. Implies -f.

       -f     Run curlftpfs in foreground mode.

       -r     Mount read-only.

       -s     Disable multi-threaded operation.

       -o     Options  are  specified  with  a  -o  flag  followed by a comma separated string of
              options.

              allow_other
                     Allow access to other users. By default the mount point is  only  accessible

              allow_root
                     Allow  access to root user. By default the mount point is only accessible to
                     the user that mounted it and not even to root.

              debug  enable debug output

              direct_io
                     use direct I/O

              fsname=NAME
                     set filesystem name in mtab

              gid=N  set file group

              hard_remove

                     allow mounts over non-empty file/dir

              readdir_ino
                     try to fill in d_ino in readdir

              uid=N  set file owner

              umask=M
                     set file permissions (octal)
