(AutoIt) Multi-Hop SSH (SSH Through SSH)

Demonstrates how to SSH through one SSH server to get to another SSH server. The scheme looks like this:

Application => ServerSSH1 => ServerSSH2

The ConnectThroughSsh method is added in Chilkat version 9.5.0.55 to accomplish this task. Technically, it should be possible to chain any number of servers using the ConnectThroughSsh multiple times:

Application => ServerSSH1 => ServerSSH2 ==> ServerSSH3 => ... => ServerSSHN

$oSsh1 = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Ssh")

; Hostname may be an IP address or domain name:
Local $sHostname = "192.168.1.108"
Local $sPort = 22

; Connect directly to the 1st SSH server:
Local $bSuccess = $oSsh1.Connect($sHostname,$sPort)
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSsh1.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; Wait a max of 15 seconds when reading responses..

; Authenticate using login/password:
$bSuccess = $oSsh1.AuthenticatePw("myLogin","myPassword")
If ($bSuccess <> True) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oSsh1.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

; Connect through the 1st SSH connection to reach a 2nd SSH server.
; Note: Any number of SSH connections may be simultaneously tunneled through a single
; existing SSH connection.
