Thank you Dominik for all your help!!

I've solved the problem: execute : printenv > ~/.ssh/environment

edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and set PermitUserEnvironment to "yes" and
check that UseLogin is set to "no"

scp hostname ~/.ssh/environment user@hostname:~/.ssh/environment

edit sshd_config on the other host and set the same things.

Works like a charm!
