# 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

success = ssh.Connect(hostname,port)

    sys.exit()

# Your application is now connected to an SSH server
