Description
For certain old windows versions that do not support unix domain sockets, the following errors are printed for sil-kit-registry, sil-kit-system-controller and regular SilKit Participants because they try to open an unix socket first by default.

They eventually connect using TCP and the simulation runs fine but printing the log as an 'error' when the fallback works fine seems a bit misleading. I think this could be a source of confusion of whether the simulation is completely error free or not. Wouldn't it be clearer to maybe show it as an info\warning log if a connection is established (using fallbacks) and only show them as errors only when establising a connection fails?
