//  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.SocksHostname := 'www.mysocksproxyserver.com';
ssh.SocksPort := 1080;
ssh.SocksUsername := 'myProxyLogin';
ssh.SocksPassword := 'myProxyPassword';

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

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

//  Connect to an SSH server via a SOCKS proxy:

//  Hostname may be an IP address or hostname:
hostname := '192.168.1.108';
port := 22;
