CURLOPT_USERNAME(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options					       CURLOPT_USERNAME(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_USERNAME - user name to use in authentication

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_USERNAME,
				 char *username);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a char * as parameter, which should be pointing to the zero terminated user name to use for the transfer.

       CURLOPT_USERNAME(3) sets the user name to be used in protocol authentication. You should not use this option together with the (older) CUR-
       LOPT_USERPWD(3) option.

       When using Kerberos V5 authentication with a Windows based server, you should include the domain name in order for the server  to  success-
       fully obtain a Kerberos Ticket. If you don't then the initial part of the authentication handshake may fail.

       When  using  NTLM,  the	user  name  can be specified simply as the user name without the domain name should the server be part of a single
       domain and forest.

       To include the domain name use either Down-Level Logon Name or UPN (User Principal Name) formats. For example, EXAMPLEuser and	user@exam-
       ple.com respectively.

       Some HTTP servers (on Windows) support inclusion of the domain for Basic authentication as well.

       To specify the password and login options, along with the user name, use the CURLOPT_PASSWORD(3) and CURLOPT_LOGIN_OPTIONS(3) options.

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