Unable to clone/push/pull any repos across any of my bitbucket account

patlaplante

As of yesterday I have had no problem whatsoever with pulling/pushing.

But yesterday I started seeing 

```

Received disconnect from 2401:1d80:321c:1:0:bbc:1:df7c port 22:2: too many authentication failures Disconnected from 2401:1d80:321c:1:0:bbc:1:df7c port 22 fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
```

I went to bed.

This morning I was able to clone a repo, but when I tried to do anything I got the same error.

I then tried to clone the same repo again and since then I am getting that too many authentication failures...  I am totally block and unable to work.

Hello @patlaplante ,

and welcome to the Community!

The error message you're receiving is usually returned on an SSH connection when the client exhausted the number of attempts of authenticating.

This can usually occur if you have multiple SSH configured in your local machine, making the SSH attempt to authenticate with each one of them until it finds one that Bitbucket Cloud accepts.

In this case, could you please confirm if that is the case by running the following ssh test command ? 

ssh -v bitbucket.org

And then looks for the lines where it says:

debug1: Will attempt key: <path to the key>
debug1: Will attempt key: <path to the key> 
[.....]
debug1: Offering public key: <path to the key>
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
debug1: Offering public key: <path to the key>
[...]
debug1: Server accepts key: <path to the key>

 This will help to understand how many keys you have currently configured and if this is causing the SSH connection to drop because of the number of attempts.

Thank you, @patlaplante !
