I'm using curlftpfs+fuse and so it seems it's curlftpfs that is asking rest.

Since I don't see any evident option in the curlftpfs manual to
disable rest, and curlftpfs doesn't seem to be actively maintained,
could you please suggest how I could solve this issue by somehow
modifying the libcurl source to always disable rest?

I tried looking for a place to do this, ie a flag in curl.h to disable
REST. but failed.

Grepping curlftpfs source for REST doesn't output anything related to
ftp protocol.

Do you know of any alternative to curlftpfs?

Thanks
