A common problem for node operators is sorting out which ports are required to be available on the system prior to running. We've recently improved the documentation to be more explicit about this [0], but here we add explicit error messages when binds fail. This addition should make reasoning about network surface more straightforward, and eliminate guessing games to figure out which port needs to be overridden or freed.
