Unix systems have for a very long time offered a way for users to store their
user name and password for remote FTP servers. ftp clients have supported
this for decades and this way allowed users to quickly login to known servers
without manually having to reenter the credentials each time. The .netrc
file
is typically stored in a user's home directory. (On Windows, curl will look for
it with the name _netrc
).
