Hi TJ,

The various timeouts are, as they sound, timeouts for specific  
operations.  For example when connecting to a server  
(HttpClient.setConnectionTimeout()) it is the time HttpClient will wait  
until the connection is established (the socket is opened).  In the  
case you are seeing the problem is not timeout, it's that the server  
specifically rejects the connection.  It may very well be that the  
server under high load rejects connections.  The only recourse in this  
case is to retry the method.

HttpClient.setTimeout() sets the socket SO_TIMEOUT.  This is the  
timeout for an individual read() operation on a socket.  Please see the  
java.net.Socket docs for a little more detail on this.

Mike
