local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

local ftp = chilkat.Ftp2.new()

ftp.hostname = "www.example-code.com"
ftp.username = "example-code.com"
ftp.password = "****"

ftp.proxy_hostname = "ftp.myproxyhost.com"
ftp.proxy_port = 21
-- Note: Your FTP Proxy server may or may not require authentication.
ftp.proxy_username = "myProxyUsername"
ftp.proxy_password = "myProxyPassword"

-- The ProxyMethod should be an integer value between 1 and 5.
-- If you know your FTP proxy server's authentication scheme,
-- you may set it directly.  To determine the ProxyMethod,
-- call DetermineProxyMethod.  A return value of -1 indicates a failure.
-- A return value of 0 indicates that nothing worked.
-- A return value of 1-5 indicates the ProxyMethod that was
-- successful, and this should be the value used for the ProxyMethod
-- property.
