NAME

       CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5 - MD5 checksum of SSH server public key

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5,
                                 char *md5);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a  char  pointer  pointing  to a string containing 32 hexadecimal digits. The string
       should be the 128 bit MD5 checksum of the remote host's public key, and libcurl aborts the
       connection to the host unless the MD5 checksum match.

       MD5 is a weak algorithm. We strongly recommend using CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_SHA256(3)
       instead.

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

DEFAULT

       NULL

PROTOCOLS

       This functionality affects scp and sftp

EXAMPLE

       int main(void)
       {
         CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
         if(curl) {
           CURLcode res;
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "sftp://example.com/file");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SSH_HOST_PUBLIC_KEY_MD5,
                            "afe17cd62a0f3b61f1ab9cb22ba269a7");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }

AVAILABILITY

       Added in curl 7.17.1

RETURN VALUE

       Returns  CURLE_OK  if  the  option  is  supported,   CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION   if   not,   or
       CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
