Demonstrates how to start a background thread that runs a portable SSH tunnel w/ dynamic port forwarding that the foreground thread can use for establishing connections through an SSH tunnel.

' with dynamic port forwarding:

' We may optionally require that connecting clients authenticate with our SOCKS proxy server.
' To do this, set an inbound username/password.  Any connecting clients would be required to 
' use SOCKS5 with the correct username/password.
' If no inbound username/password is set, then our SOCKS proxy server will accept both
' SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 unauthenticated connections.

' Now that a background thread is running a SOCKS proxy server that forwards connections
' through an SSH tunnel, it is possible to use any Chilkat implemented protocol that is SOCKS capable,
' such as HTTP, POP3, SMTP, IMAP, FTP, etc.  The protocol may use SSL/TLS because the SSL/TLS
' will be passed through the SSH tunnel to the end-destination.  Also, any number of simultaneous
' connections may be routed through the SSH tunnel.

' For this example, let's do a simple HTTPS request:
url = "https://www.ethereum.org/"

set http = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Http")

' Indicate that the HTTP object is to use our portable SOCKS proxy/SSH tunnel running in our background thread.

' Do the HTTPS page fetch (through the SSH tunnel)

' Stop the background listen/accept thread:
waitForThreadExit = 1
success = tunnel.StopAccepting(waitForThreadExit)
If (success <> 1) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( tunnel.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
    Response.End
End If

' Close the SSH tunnel (would also kick any remaining connected clients).
success = tunnel.CloseTunnel(waitForThreadExit)
If (success <> 1) Then
