Pascal (Lazarus/Delphi)

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.)

  //  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

  //  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:

  //  Hostname may be an IP address or hostname:
