On Windows, the configuration file locations are
\f[C]%APPDATA%\\youtube\-dl\\config.txt\f[] and
\f[C]C:\\Users\\<user\ name>\\youtube\-dl.conf\f[].
+.SS Authentication with \f[C]\&.netrc\f[] file
+.PP
+You may also want to configure automatic credentials storage for
+extractors that support authentication (by providing login and password
+with \f[C]\-\-username\f[] and \f[C]\-\-password\f[]) in order not to
+pass credentials as command line arguments on every youtube\-dl
+execution and prevent tracking plain text passwords in shell command
+history.
+You can achieve this using \f[C]\&.netrc\f[]
+file (http://stackoverflow.com/tags/.netrc/info) on per extractor basis.
+For that you will need to create \f[C]\&.netrc\f[] file in your
+\f[C]$HOME\f[] and restrict permissions to read/write by you only:
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+touch\ $HOME/.netrc
+chmod\ a\-rwx,u+rw\ $HOME/.netrc
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+After that you can add credentials for extractor in the following
+format, where \f[I]extractor\f[] is the name of extractor in lowercase:
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+machine\ <extractor>\ login\ <login>\ password\ <password>
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+For example:
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+machine\ youtube\ login\ myaccount\@gmail.com\ password\ my_youtube_password
+machine\ twitch\ login\ my_twitch_account_name\ password\ my_twitch_password
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+To activate authentication with \f[C]\&.netrc\f[] file you should pass
+\f[C]\-\-netrc\f[] to youtube\-dl or to place it in configuration
+file (#configuration).
+.PP
+On Windows you may also need to setup \f[C]%HOME%\f[] environment
+variable manually.
.SH OUTPUT TEMPLATE

The \f[C]\-o\f[] option allows users to indicate a template for the

Contact the service and ask them to unblock your IP address, or \- if
you have acquired a whitelisted IP address already \- use the
-\f[C]\-\-proxy\f[] or \f[C]\-\-network\-address\f[]
+\f[C]\-\-proxy\f[] or \f[C]\-\-source\-address\f[]
options (#network-options) to select another IP address.
