Demonstrates how to connect to an SFTP/SSH server through a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy.

Chilkat Go Downloads Go Package for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux, Solaris

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

    sftp := chilkat.NewSFtp()

    // To use a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, simply set the following
    // properties prior to connecting:
    // The SOCKS hostname may be a domain name or 
    // IP address:
    sftp.SetSocksHostname("www.mysocksproxyserver.com")
    sftp.SetSocksPort(1080)
    sftp.SetSocksUsername("myProxyLogin")
    sftp.SetSocksPassword("myProxyPassword")

    // Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
    // of the SOCKS proxy server:
    sftp.SetSocksVersion(5)

    // Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
    // SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.

    // Connect to the SSH server.  
    // The standard SSH port = 22
    // The hostname may be a hostname or IP address.
    hostname := "sftp.example.com"
    port := 22
    success := sftp.Connect(hostname,port)
    if success != true {
        fmt.Println(sftp.LastErrorText())
        sftp.DisposeSFtp()
        return
    }

    // Your application is now connected to an SFTP/SSH server 
    // through a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy. 
    // ..

    sftp.DisposeSFtp()
