Hello,

I setup a VPN PPTP connection via network manager and it connects correctly (I see the lock near the notification icon and the message "Vpn connection has been successfully...")

As soon as I try to perform any SSH connection via the established tunnel the connection itself goes down with the message "Vpn connection failed".

the SSH connection always fails at
Code:
debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent
I've looked into the system logs and this is the log

Code:

Please note that the same vpn is configured on my colleagues Windows 7 and works without problem when they use putty to connect via SSH
