loFtp = createobject("CkFtp2")

loFtp.Hostname = "www.example-code.com"
loFtp.Username = "example-code.com"

loFtp.ProxyPort = 21
// Note: Your FTP Proxy server may or may not require authentication.
loFtp.ProxyUsername = "myProxyUsername"
loFtp.ProxyPassword = "myProxyPassword"

// The ProxyMethod should be an integer value between 1 and 5.
// If you know your FTP proxy server's authentication scheme,
// you may set it directly.  To determine the ProxyMethod,
// call DetermineProxyMethod.  A return value of -1 indicates a failure.
// A return value of 0 indicates that nothing worked.
// A return value of 1-5 indicates the ProxyMethod that was 
// successful, and this should be the value used for the ProxyMethod
// property.

lnPMethod = loFtp.DetermineProxyMethod()
? str(lnPMethod)
