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

Dim sftp As New Chilkat.SFtp

// 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:
sftp.SocksHostname = "www.mysocksproxyserver.com"
sftp.SocksPort = 1080
sftp.SocksUsername = "myProxyLogin"
sftp.SocksPassword = "myProxyPassword"

// Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
// of the SOCKS proxy server:
sftp.SocksVersion = 5

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

// Connect to the SSH server.  
// The standard SSH port = 22
// The hostname may be a hostname or IP address.
Dim hostname As String
hostname = "sftp.example.com"
Dim port As Int32
port = 22
Dim success As Boolean
success = sftp.Connect(hostname,port)
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(sftp.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Your application is now connected to an SFTP/SSH server 
// through a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy.
