(Classic ASP) FTP through SSH Tunnel

Demonstrates how to FTP through an SSH tunnel.

The Chilkat SSH tunnel object is used to create a portable SSH tunnel w/ dynamic port forwarding on a background thread that the foreground thread can use for establishing connections through an SSH tunnel.

' Now that a background thread is running a SOCKS proxy server that forwards connections
' through an SSH tunnel, it is possible to use any Chilkat implemented protocol that is SOCKS capable,
' such as Socket, HTTP, POP3, SMTP, IMAP, FTP, etc.  The protocol may use SSL/TLS because the SSL/TLS
' will be passed through the SSH tunnel to the end-destination.  Also, any number of simultaneous
' connections may be routed through the SSH tunnel.

' Let's do an FTP upload through the SSH tunnel.  Both the control and data connections 
' go through the tunnel.
