When making outgoing connections, tinc goes through the list of Addresses and
tries all of them until one succeeds. However, before it would consider
establishing a TCP connection a success, even when the authentication failed.
This would be a problem if the first Address would point to a hostname and port
combination that belongs to the wrong tinc node, or perhaps even to a non-tinc
service, causing tinc to endlessly try this Address instead of moving to the
next one.
