Error: Connection ended: possibly due to an authentication failure

I'm running amqp-tool against rabbitmq 3.2.4 using an authenticated user but always fails. Logging in the web UI works though:

amqp-tool -vvvv --host localhost --port 32781 -u jgaspar -p 123456 -q test --count 1 --export dump.json
RabbitMQ :: error Error: Connection ended: possibly due to an authentication failure.

RabbitMQ connection closed :: close false

When not specifying a user it works fine with default one (guest/guest). Rabbitmq is running inside a vagrant box and I'm forwarding the port, hence it's using 32781.

It seems to be related with your RabbitMQ user configuration, check that you did allow the right host access for this user in RabbitMQ policy panel.
