            Bug ID: 2814
           Summary: Connection error should report failure instead of
                    success
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.6p1
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh

Suggested diff

When the connection fails, the error handling reports success if no
errno
was provided, as this defaults to 0 (Success). As this can never be the 
case when an error occurs, instead the output should show a failure.

Forced example:
ssh -6 -b 10.0.0.3 vyatta at 2000::4
getaddrinfo: 10.0.0.3: Address family for hostname not supported
ssh: connect to host 2000::4 port 22: Success
