// Needs #include <CkSsh.h>

    CkString strOut;

    CkSsh ssh;

    bool success;

    //  Unlock the SSH component:
    success = ssh.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial.");
    if (success != true) {
        strOut.append(ssh.lastErrorText());
        strOut.append("\r\n");
        SetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT1,strOut.getUnicode());
        return;
    }

    //  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);
    ssh.put_SocksUsername("myProxyLogin");
    ssh.put_SocksPassword("myProxyPassword");

    //  Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
    //  of the SOCKS proxy server:
    ssh.put_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:
    const char * hostname;
    long port;

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

    success = ssh.Connect(hostname,port);
    if (success != true) {
        strOut.append(ssh.lastErrorText());
        strOut.append("\r\n");
        SetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT1,strOut.getUnicode());
        return;
    }

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