[Bug 1279999] Re: ssh login no longer works over vpn

[Jerry Quinn]

Well the story is now more confusing for me.  I disabled the Ciphers and
MACs fields in /etc/ssh/ssh_config and connected again. This time, I'm
able to get into my work machines without problem.

However, at the time, enabling the fields was the difference between
success and failure.

I know the VPN solution is a large-scale thing, so this connection may
be different from the previous connection.

Given that, it doesn't necessarily seem like an ssh bug.  I would like
to suggest that the config file and man pages indicate that it's useful
to muck with those fields when connection reset or hangs occur.
Otherwise we spend time scouring the web for possible solutions and
guesswork.
