Authentication failed - No Connection #4

Hi, we are running the steamcache-site-license docker container on a qnap in the container station. Everything works fine for 1 to 2 days, after that time we get the following error and the site license server stops working.

Site license provider authentication: FAILED - EResult (3) No Connection
Site license provider authentication FAILED: Scheduling connection retry in 15s

A manual restart of the container fixes this problem. Is there anything I can do to prevent this error or to automaticly restart if it appears? Or periodically restart the docker container?

Thanks for your help in advance and the awesome work.

The 2FA Auth Code seems to be the problem. I setup a site licence steamcache manually on debian an hat the same problems. After disabling the 2FA the problems are gone. Steamcmd still does regularly disconnect, but after 15 seconds it automatically reconnects and everything works.

So 2FA Auth codes are not the best solution. I recommend disabling them but leave Steam Guard active. so you have to enter a Auth Code only once on new Hardware (code gets sent by SMS or email)
