Version: FreeNAS-11.3-U2.1
Running on a home-built server.

I am trying to set up a rsync pull task using ssh. I verified that ssh works, can connect to the remote box, etc. After configuring the task, but not enabling it, I can save it successfully. If I then go back into the task and use 'RUN NOW', the task runs, goes to 'RUNNING' and eventually 'SUCCESS'. Logging into the FreeNAS server, I can see the task running as well. So far so good.

However, if I now try to enable the job, the UI says: Disconnect Error[ error code 14 ] was generated when trying to communicate with remote host <hostname> and remote user mjv39474.

At the remote end I see:
May 10 08:29:42 <hostname> sshd[83160]: Connection closed by authenticating user mjv39474 <1.2.3.4> port 12345 [preauth]

No idea how I go about fixing this. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks!
