Configuring proxy servers

Some organizations require that you use a proxy server to access servers outside the organization's local network.

Transmit supports 10 common types of basic FTP proxy server authentication, as well as SOCKS 4, 4a, and 5.

To use a proxy server:

  1. Choose Transmit > Preferences

  2. Click Advanced

  3. Choose a proxy server type from the popup. A description of the proxy authentication process that you've chosen appears below the popup.

  4. Enter the proxy server address, port, user name, and password (as required) in the fields provided.
