It would be helpful to get a more descriptive error message when joining a cluster with the wrong encryption key. Right now this is the output I get from my agent as it fails to connect

==> Starting Consul agent...
==> Starting Consul agent RPC...
==> Joining cluster...
==> EOF

Something simple like

Invalid encryption key

would be very helpful

+1, its ridiculous that there isn't a more coherent error message for this. So many people have lost so much time from the ominous "EOF" error. Fix this in the next release, PLEASE.
