This bug is also present in version 4.1.2.2 for Linux.
The program ignores the specified ssh port number, both from the profile 
settings (GUI) and from the command line.

The program uses the value "Port" specified in the "/etc/ssh/ssh_config" 
file of the client computer.
Because of this, it is impossible to use the program if the port to 
which you want to connect differs from the one specified in 
"/etc/ssh/ssh_config".

Only in my case, there was no timeout, but there were certificate 
errors, because, the login was carried out on another ssh server located 
on the same IP address.

The way out is to use the PyHOCA-GUI client - it connects without 
problems to any specified port.
