Using a proxy server

Some organizations require FTP connections be made through a proxy server for security reasons. If this applies to you, here is how to configure Transmit to use a proxy server.

Choose Transmit > Preferences.

Click on the Network button.

Select the type of proxy server you will be connecting to in the Proxy Server Type popup button.

Type in the address of your proxy server in the Proxy Server field.

Type in the port that your proxy server uses in the Proxy Port field.

If your proxy server requires authorization, type in the user name and password for the proxy into the Proxy User Name and Proxy Password fields respectively.
