Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report. In order to reproduce the bug you faced, could you please share your config files? OpenSSH and OpenVPN ones. Otherwise we cannot do anything.
Since there is not enough information in your report to begin triage or to differentiate between a local configuration problem and a bug in Ubuntu, I am marking this bug as "Incomplete". We would be grateful if you would: provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to "New". For local configuration issues, you can find assistance here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: openvpn (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1874257 Title: SSH fails with connection timed out - in VPN and hangs here "expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_REPLY" + Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in openvpn package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello Team, SSH timeout issue, once connect to VPN.
