IExFileTransferClient.SocksContext Property

NOTE: This property is now obsolete.

Use ProxySettings


Settings for SOCKS proxy.

EnterpriseDT.Util.Socks.SocksContext SocksContext {get; set;}

Remarks

SOCKS may be used for FTPing through firewalls. For this to be possible a SOCKS proxy must be available, and a user account must be set up on that proxy. ExFTPConnection supports all the popular versions of SOCKS - 4, 4A, and 5.

The SOCKS features are controlled entirely through the SocksContext property. If it is null (the default) then SOCKS is not used. To use SOCKS, the property must be set to an instance of Socks4Context or Socks5Context. For example, for SOCKS4:

       myFTPClient.SocksContext = new Socks4Context("192.168.0.2", 1080, "marvin23");
and for SOCKS5:
       Socks5Context socksContext = new Socks5Context("192.168.0.2", 1080);
       socksContext.AuthMethods.Add(new Socks5NoAuthMethod());
       socksContext.AuthMethods.Add(new Socks5UserNamePasswordAuthMethod("marvin23", "m31erk"));
       myFTPClient.SocksContext = socksContext;
