If you get no manifest code with correct parameters, Steam doesn't want you to download it. That's what the manifest codes were added for.

EDIT: Try using a logged in account, that seems to have worked for me.

He is trying to download server files. Not game files. We need to login anonymously in order to get Rust server files.

Slight misinformation here. The publisher has blocked old depot downloads. Unsure on the date threshold here however as of a couple months ago from the first reported issue, it seems that attempting to downloading any manifest from a year or older and possibly even new than that, it will respond with a 401 error on DepotDownloader and an access denied error on SteamCMD. Since this is a dedicated server app, you cannot download it via logging in and are required to login anonymous.

Would be nice to get a list of blocked apps somewhere either on here or on SteamDB. I'll see if SteamDB can add something.
