Somebody else on this list may be better able to answer that. My tool of
choice would be tcpdump - monitor all traffic between 10.0.4.1 and 10.0.4.2
(which may be quite a bit), then try to connect again, and see if you can
tease out the related packets.

Another possibility is to try and use netstat immediately after you try to
connect, and see if there are any connections in TIME_WAIT or CLOSE_WAIT or
one of the FIN_WAIT statuses. But that is probably a matter of luck
catching it.
