SSH using HTTP Proxy

See more SSH Examples

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.51 or greater.

Demonstrates how to connect to an SSH server through an HTTP proxy. (Connects through a generic proxy of type: HTTP/1.1 using the CONNECT method.)

function chilkatExample() {

    var success = false;

    //  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    var ssh = new chilkat.Ssh();

    //  To connect through an HTTP proxy, set the HttpProxyHostname
    //  and HttpProxyPort properties to the hostname (or IP address)
    //  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;

    //  Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
    //  traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

    //  Connect to an SSH server via an HTTP proxy:
    var hostname;
    var port;

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

    success = ssh.Connect(hostname,port);
    if (success !== true) {
        console.log(ssh.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    //  Your application is now connected to an SSH server 
    //  through an HTTP proxy. 
    //  ...
