.IP CURLAUTH_NTLM_WB
NTLM delegating to winbind helper. Authentication is performed by a separate
binary application that is executed when needed. The name of the application
is specified at compile time but is typically /usr/bin/ntlm_auth
(Added in 7.22.0)
Note that libcurl will fork when necessary to run the winbind application and
kill it when complete, calling waitpid() to await its exit when done. On POSIX
operating systems, killing the process will cause a SIGCHLD signal to be
raised (regardless of whether \fICURLOPT_NOSIGNAL\fP is set), which must be
handled intelligently by the application. In particular, the application must
not unconditionally call wait() in its SIGCHLD signal handler to avoid being
subject to a race condition. This behavior is subject to change in future
versions of libcurl.
.IP CURLAUTH_ANY
This is a convenience macro that sets all bits and thus makes libcurl pick any
it finds suitable. libcurl will automatically select the one it finds most
