The ECONNRESET is what is reported by the operating system so evidently it thinks the connection has been reset. If, for example, the peer sends a FIN before the connection has been fully established (SYN sent but no ACK received yet), then most operating systems will consider that a reset. ECONNABORTED would have made more sense IMO but it is what it is. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
