# This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.

# 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->put_HttpProxyHostname("www.my-http-proxy.com");
$ssh->put_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:

# Hostname may be an IP address or hostname:
$hostname = "192.168.1.108";
