  Ah, thanks. I thought that I didn't find the option for that.

  Hmmm. First impression I have is:
curl_easy_setopt (curl, COMMANDS_ONLY, YES);
  This is not soooo nice but I will give the needed behaviour. At the
moment I think, I use libcurl for things it is not intended for. But it
was the choice of using a tool instead of implementing all the needed
ftp-stuff based on a socket-library or so.
