FR (?): connect to reverse-proxied hosts about pony-ssh HOT 2 CLOSED

Oh dang, of course, why didn't I think of that–thank you very much, @thingalon! Unfortunately with the current situation & "home"-"office" (aka "no, I'm swamped") there's no way I can get into a new language/environment atm. Hopefully someone who already has some experience with writing VSCode plugins will come along and treat us to that PR at some point :)

Pony-SSH doesn't have in-built proxy connection support at this time, though I would be completely open to receiving a PR to add the feature. :)

In the meantime, I think you can set this up by manually opening a forwarding connection to your proxy.

Try this: In a terminal (or WSL session if you're on Windows), open a connection to your proxy host forwarding a local port of your choice to port 22 on your destination machine:

ssh -L 2222:your.target.server.com:22 your.proxy.server.com

Once you've done that, any connections to port 2222 on your local machine should get forwarded to port 22 on your.target.server.com

From there, you should be able to connect using a Pony-SSH config like this:

"proxied-host": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "port": 2222,
    "username": "username-from-the-target-server",
    "agent": true,
}

I know it's not as convenient as having in-built proxy support in Pony-SSH, but hopefully this can get you up and running for now. Let me know how you get on.
