Error: B2-Backblaze Failed to Authenticate - Connection reset by peer

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Cannot connect at all to B2 from this system. Same config / settings work for other systems.

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

  • rclone v1.60.1
  • os/version: redhat 7.6 (64 bit)
  • os/kernel: 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64 (x86_64)
  • os/type: linux
  • os/arch: amd64
  • go/version: go1.19.3
  • go/linking: static
  • go/tags: none

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Backblaze B2

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone lsl remote: -vv

The rclone config contents with secrets removed.

[remote]
type = b2
account = XXXX
key = XXXX

This could be the remote end disconnecting - in which case try again.

Or it could be a local firewall blocking the connection.

hello and welcome to the forum,

are you using a vpn or a proxy server?

It's in an internal network with a gateway to the outside world. Used a laptop within the same network and rclone worked without issues.

ok, this is strange, that you copied the same rclone.conf and still have issues.

fwiw, has happened to me before with a laptop.
that the laptop was using wifi and/or connected to another internet network.
