SSH using HTTP Proxy

See more SSH Examples

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.)

var success = false;

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

var ssh = new CkSsh();

// 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.
ssh.HttpProxyHostname = "www.my-http-proxy.com";
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:
var hostname;
var port;

// Hostname may be an IP address or hostname:
hostname = "192.168.1.108";
port = 22;

success = ssh.Connect(hostname,port);
if (success !== true) {
    console.log(ssh.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Your application is now connected to an SSH server 
// through an HTTP proxy.
