Connection reset by peer (SFTP)

#1 Post by mil4 » 2021-03-02 20:28

Hi,

I am running FileZilla on a new MacBook Air (M1 chip). It was working in the beginning of February, but today when I wanted to use it, it keeps giving me this message:
Status: Connecting to 157.139.xxx.xx...
Response: fzSftp started, protocol_version=10
Command: open "research@157.139.xxx.xx" 22
Error: FATAL ERROR: Connection reset by peer
Error: Could not connect to server
Status: Waiting to retry...
Status: Connecting to 157.139.xxx.xx...
Response: fzSftp started, protocol_version=10
Command: open "research@157.139.xxx.xx" 22
Error: FATAL ERROR: Connection reset by peer
Error: Could not connect to server

I had a colleague try using it from his older Mac and it works perfectly, with the exact same information used.

Why is this suddenly happening and what can I do?
I am not using any firewall..

Which version of FileZilla are you using?

Do you have a large number of keys loaded in your system's SSH agent?

About the keys, I don't think so.
Nothing changed in the past year I have been using Filezilla. except my laptop. But since it worked on this laptop in the beginning, I don't understand why it stopped.
