Thanks I will re-test same.

If we fail due to authentication, then I think we should notify the client
instead of trying next host. I think it is expected genuine user have right
credentials for making the connection. So it's better if we notify same to
client immediately rather than silently ignoring them. Otherwise the host
node which the client failed to connect will be permanently unavailable
until client corrects itself. But I agree documentation and error message
as you said need improvements. I will try to correct same.
