The connect failure likely came from the whois server you were referred
to.
e.g. for a domain I'm involved with I get:
$ whois --verbose mydomain
Using server whois.crsnic.net.
[..]
[summary details]
Whois Server: whois.tucows.com
[..]
[legal crap here]
[..]
Using server whois.tucows.com.
[..]
[the full details here]
[more legal crap]
So I wouldn't worry much about the connect failure. It just means you
couldn't contact that registrar's whois server at that time.
The whois I'm using (whois in Debian) has a -H that removes legal
disclaimers.
