Re: Resolving 10060, 'Operation timed out'

My manual says that socket has a settimeout(value) but I don't
seem to find anything on socket.setdefaulttimeout method you
refer to.

<snip>
settimeout( value)

Set a timeout on blocking socket operations. The value argument can be a
nonnegative float expressing seconds, or None. If a float is given, subsequent
socket operations will raise an timeout exception if the timeout period value
has elapsed before the operation has completed. Setting a timeout of None
disables timeouts on socket operations. s.settimeout(0.0) is equivalent to
s.setblocking(0); s.settimeout(None) is equivalent to s.setblocking(1). New in
version 2.3.
