SFTP an internet address from a system behind an internet proxy
I was wondering if it is possible to setup SFTP to go through the internet proxy while connecting to an internet location.
Problem: Client system is behind internet proxy. SFTP to any internet location fails as there is no documented way to configure SFTP to connect to internet locations through the internet proxy.

SOCKET-CONTEXT-OPTIONS(3) 1 SOCKET-CONTEXT-OPTIONS(3)
Socket context options - Socket context option listing
Socket context options are available for all wrappers that work over sockets, like tcp, http and ftp.
o $bindto
- Used to specify the IP address (either IPv4 or IPv6) and/or the port number that PHP will use to access the network. The syntax
is ip:port for IPv4 addresses, and [ip]:port for IPv6 addresses. Setting the IP or the port to 0 will let the system choose the IP
and/or port.
Note
As FTP creates two socket connections during normal operation, the port number cannot be specified using this option.
o $backlog
- Used to limit the number of outstanding connections in the socket's listen queue.
Note
This is only applicable to stream_socket_server(3).
