'  and port of the HTTP proxy.  Typical port numbers used by
'  HTTP proxy servers are 3128 and 8080.
ssh.HttpProxyHostname = "www.my-http-proxy.com"
ssh.HttpProxyPort = 3128

'  Connect to an SSH server via an HTTP proxy:

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

success = ssh.Connect(hostname,port)
If (success <> 1) Then
    MsgBox ssh.LastErrorText
    WScript.Quit
