Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$success = $false

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

# Important: It is helpful to send the contents of the
# sftp.LastErrorText property when requesting support.

$sftp = New-Object Chilkat.SFtp

# Set some timeouts, in milliseconds:
$sftp.ConnectTimeoutMs = 15000
$sftp.IdleTimeoutMs = 15000

# Connect to the SSH server.  
$success = $sftp.Connect("sftp.example.com",22)
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($sftp.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Authenticate with the SSH server.  Chilkat SFTP supports
# both password-based authenication as well as public-key
# authentication.  This example uses password authenication.
$success = $sftp.AuthenticatePw("myLogin","myPassword")
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($sftp.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# After authenticating, the SFTP subsystem must be initialized:
$success = $sftp.InitializeSftp()
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($sftp.LastErrorText)
    exit
}

# Create a new directory:
$success = $sftp.CreateDir("myNewDir")
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($sftp.LastErrorText)
    exit
}
