The connection is refused because noone is listening for incoming
connections at the destination address:port that you attempted to
connect to.

Do your server support SFTP connections? Could you connect to it
using another software?

Connection refused means that when you attempted to connect to the host/port the
host responded with RST/ACK response, i.e. go away.
This is normally the result of there being nothing listening on that port. Also,
some firewalls are configured to respond in this manner to any attempted
connection.
