I get back nothing, exactly. I tried disabling the Windows firewall, but 
no change. I checked the sshd log in the remote host, and there is no 
output at all when I try to connect through sftp or ssh. Btw, the sshd 
is running on a Linux machine.

I can connect to a remote host from my machine using an ssh client and 
with the firewall enabled. The communication is tunneled via vpn. Does 
this information help?
