This is a very low-level error; the TCP connection couldn't even be 
established.

- Use netstat to check if SSH really is listening on port 9112.
- Use netstat on the mail.state-of-mind.de server to confirm that fd is 
listening on port 9101.
- Check your iptables to make sure that it isn't blocking port 9112 on 
interface lo, or anything else on the way.

HTH!
