-----------------------------------
This seems related... I could be wrong.
> SASL authentication failures appear as I/O failures

> Key: PROTON-735
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-735
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: proton-c
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Reporter: Ken Giusti
> Fix For: 0.9
>
>
> Using the current SASL api, an application has to poll the pn_sasl_t object's
> state (pn_sasl_state()) until a terminal state is reached (STATE_PASS/FAIL).
> Once the terminal state is reached, the outcome can be queried via
> pn_sasl_outcome.
> Unfortunately, when the sasl client receives an authentication failure
> outcome from the sasl server, the sasl layer returns PN_ERR from its input
> processing code. This causes the pn_transport_push() to return a generic
> error.
> From the application's point of view, this effectively results in the
> transport failing -before- the sasl terminal state has been reached. The
> application will interpret this event as a generic input failure on the
> transport - not the authentication failure it actually was.
