Ping to gateway is OK, I get response. When tring use telnet, no response:
$ telnet subhostname.hostname.cz 1723
As I understand it right, server do not respond. But, it should work since my colleagues with Windows 10 have no problems. I disabled firewall. Traceroute gives me reasonable path. For the sake of completeness I provide NetworkManager VPN config:
Gateway: subhostname.hostname.cz
Authentication: check only MSCHAPv2 (no combination works tho)
Use Point-to-Point encryption (MPPE): checked
Send PPP echo packets: checked
Nothing else is checked.
