Why do you provide a slash as a breaking char too? Backslash is the
only used char to separate domain from samaccountname.

I didn't even look at that part — it's just in the context of my patch.

I assume it's to allow people to specify the user on the command line
with a slash instead of a backslash?

Backslash isn't a problem as long as you do:

$ curl --ntlm -u DOM\\michaelo http://...

I agree. In similar code elsewhere I have not chosen to support the use
of a forward slash; only the backslash.

However, this is what curl already did before I looked at it. Removing
it now would have the potential to break existing users.

I haven't seen any reference for that in the docs. This might be a safe bet to remove an undocumented feature.

Well, not that this code was working before I sent those two patches, so
if you *really* want to make your case for removing the forward slash, I
suppose that's fair enough. But you need to make it to someone other
than me :)

If it was broken before, we aren't going to double-break stuff, are we?

Michael
