Tags: can't connect via ssh

Description:
at first it worked fine but now (1 day later) that I try to connect to the server, it prompts and alert but sometimes the mssages changes:
ChannelException('Connect failed'.)
and
'reading initial communication packet', system error: 0

I've checked my windows firewall and nothing is blocking the application and noone has changed network's firewall or something like that.

How to repeat:
configure a connection via ssh
and use the software, then restart computer.

Suggested fix:
no ideas

Does this happen after leaving Workbench running for a longer time or also when you restart workbench?
does creating a new profile and connecting to that work (like it worked at first when you created the profile, as you reported)?
thanks in advance

I'm seeing the same problem on Windows 7 64-bit.  Can't get the SSH tunnel to work in any cirumstances.

If I use Putty to create an SSH tunnel, then Workbench Query tool connect fine, but using the same connection, the Administrator tool won't connect.
