- Igor Novoseltsev added CURLOPT_PROXYUSER and CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD that then

  make CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD sort of deprecated. The primary motive for adding

  these new options is that they have no problems with the colon separator

  that the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD option does.

 o Added CURLOPT_PROXYUSER and CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD

This release includes the following bugfixes:

  doesn't do a HEAD first to get the initial size. This needs to be done

  manually for HTTP PUT resume to work, and then '-C [index]'.

7. CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD has no way of providing user names that contain a

  colon. This can't be fixed easily in a backwards compatible way without

  adding new options. CURLOPT_USERPWD was split into CURLOPT_USERNAME and

  CURLOPT_PASSWORD for this reason.

6. libcurl ignores empty path parts in FTP URLs, whereas RFC1738 states that

  such parts should be sent to the server as 'CWD ' (without an argument).

  The only exception to this rule, is that we knowingly break this if the

The CURLOPT_PASSWORD option should be used in conjunction with

as the \fICURLOPT_USERNAME\fP option. (Added in 7.19.1)

.IP CURLOPT_PROXYUSERNAME

Pass a char * as parameter, which should be pointing to the zero terminated

user name to use for the transfer while connecting to Proxy.

The CURLOPT_PROXYUSERNAME option should be used in same way as the

\fICURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD\fP is used.  In comparison to \fICURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD\fP

the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERNAME allows the username to contain colon,

like in following example: "sip:user@example.com".

Note the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERNAME option is an alternative way to set the user name

while connecting to Proxy.  There is no meaning to use it together

with the \fICURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD\fP option.

In order to specify the password to be used in conjunction with the user name

use the \fICURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD\fP option.  (Added in 7.19.1)

.IP CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD

Pass a char * as parameter, which should be pointing to the zero terminated

password to use for the transfer while connecting to Proxy.

The CURLOPT_PROXYPASSWORD option should be used in conjunction with

as the \fICURLOPT_PROXYUSERNAME\fP option. (Added in 7.19.1)

.IP CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH

Pass a long as parameter, which is set to a bitmask, to tell libcurl what

authentication method(s) you want it to use. The available bits are listed

  CINIT(USERNAME, OBJECTPOINT, 173),

  CINIT(PASSWORD, OBJECTPOINT, 174),

    /* "name" and "pwd" to use with Proxy when fetching. */

  CINIT(PROXYUSERNAME, OBJECTPOINT, 175),

  CINIT(PROXYPASSWORD, OBJECTPOINT, 176),

  CURLOPT_LASTENTRY /* the last unused */
