//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

CkoSFtp *sftp = [[CkoSFtp alloc] init];

//  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.
sftp.HttpProxyHostname = @"www.my-http-proxy.com";
sftp.HttpProxyPort = [NSNumber numberWithInt:3128];

//  Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
//  traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

//  Connect to the SSH server through the HTTP proxy.  
success = [sftp Connect: @"sftp.example.com" port: [NSNumber numberWithInt: 22]];
