SSH using HTTP Proxy

See more SSH Examples

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.51 or greater.

Demonstrates how to connect to an SSH server through an HTTP proxy. (Connects through a generic proxy of type: HTTP/1.1 using the CONNECT method.)

    SELECT @success = 0

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

    -- To connect through an HTTP proxy, set the HttpProxyHostname
    -- and HttpProxyPort properties to the hostname (or IP address)
    -- and port of the HTTP proxy.  Typical port numbers used by
    -- HTTP proxy servers are 3128 and 8080.
    EXEC sp_OASetProperty @ssh, 'HttpProxyHostname', 'www.my-http-proxy.com'
    EXEC sp_OASetProperty @ssh, 'HttpProxyPort', 3128

    -- Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
    -- traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

    -- Connect to an SSH server via an HTTP proxy:
    DECLARE @hostname nvarchar(4000)

    DECLARE @port int

    -- Hostname may be an IP address or hostname:
    SELECT @hostname = '192.168.1.108'
    SELECT @port = 22

    EXEC sp_OAMethod @ssh, 'Connect', @success OUT, @hostname, @port
    IF @success <> 1
