    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    sftp := chilkat.NewSFtp()

    // Pass a domain or IP address..
    success = sftp.Connect("my-sftp-server.com",22)
    if success == true {
        success = sftp.AuthenticatePw("mySFtpLogin","mySFtpPassword")
    }

    if success == true {
        success = sftp.InitializeSftp()
    }

    if success != true {
        fmt.Println(sftp.LastErrorText())
        sftp.DisposeSFtp()
        return
    }

    // Create a symbolic link on the server.
    // We'll create a link in our HOME directory named "sshd_config"
    // which points to the file /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
    success = sftp.SymLink("/etc/ssh/sshd_config","sshd_config")
    if success != true {
        fmt.Println(sftp.LastErrorText())
        sftp.DisposeSFtp()
        return
    }
