ok to clarify.. seems like this is a common mistake
fsockopen() times out ok if the server doesn't exist. The problem
occurs when the server doesn't understand what is sent to it afterwards
and stalls for a reply (ie, if the port is now used by another
service).
I'll check the bugs for fwrite(), fgets() etc

A simple query to a server with fsockopen() won't timeout if the
requested server is
down.
$serverquery = fsockopen($host, $port, &$errno, &$errstr, $timeout);
The operation times out first (120 seconds), even if $timeout is as low
as 1 second; it
works fine if I remove unavailable servers from the query list.
Sometimes the server
crashes if I try the function again before the last operation times
out.
