Horia,

I was unable to reproduce the problem with JRE 1.4.2.8 & 1.5.0.4 on Linux FC4
and on WinXP with JRE 1.4.2.4. I always get a reasonable connect timeout against
a non-existent IP. The problem appears to be specific to your environment, LAN,
TCP/IP setup, JRE or something else. 

Fundamentally HttpClient does not do anything tricky. It just employs reflection
to execute 1.4 specific methods:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/xref/org/apache/commons/httpclient/protocol/ReflectionSocketFactory.html#85

If you do not care about Java 1.2 compatibility, consider implementing a simpler
ProtocolSocketFactory that directly calls 1.4 specific Socket methods and see if
that makes any difference. 

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/xref/org/apache/commons/httpclient/protocol/DefaultProtocolSocketFactory.html#48

Once Odi's patch is committed we will not have much choice but to mark this bug
as WORKSFORME unless we get more info how to reproduce the problem.

Oleg
