You should get a different error message for when connection can't be
made due to firewall ignoring traffic, or trying the wrong address, or
no server listening.  A no route to host type of error.

Firewalls actually refusing/denying a connection, rather than ignoring
it, or servers actually refusing to allow the connection, ought to
produce a refusal error message.
