// 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:
$ssh->put_SocksHostname('www.mysocksproxyserver.com');
$ssh->put_SocksPort(1080);

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