<div dir="ltr"><div>We've had several night time scripts that use SFTP to send files to overnight</div><div>All has worked fine until this morning - I get email confirmations and they all had</div><div>"Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer"</div>
<div><br></div><div>So I tried to manually connect and got the same thing.</div><div>I then used FileZilla on my PC and connected without issue to one of my vendors who we use username/password with - no keys involved</div>
<div><br></div><div>So I called him - he can see me login from FileZilla and from my server - but when connecting from my server is shows I immediately logout too....</div><div><br></div><div>Again, this has been working for years up until last night - I have not installed any other packages, did a full server reboot, don't see any errors in log files, etc.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Any idea what would be causing this? I double checked permissions and don't see anything that's glaring...</div><div>I can't even sftp to localhost...I get the same thing....</div><div>I removed localhost from known_hosts in ~/.ssh directory</div>
<div>then sftp localhost I get the standard 'The authenticity of localhost can't be established blah blah blah....Are you sure you want to continue connecting? I type yes and get the same </div><div>Can't read packet: Connection reset by peer....</div>
<div>But I do get our standard FTP disclaimer so I know it's "connecting' after I put 'yes' </div><div>It also re-adds the localhost to known_hosts file - so that helped me confirm it doesn't appear to be permissions....???</div>
<div><br></div><div>Really baffled here.....out of ideas where to look.....</div><div><br></div><div>Any one run across this before?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Scott</div></div>
