Oops, now you got me.
I did not check doings tests, but relied on the manual pages of IO::Socket::IP 
only.

Maybe I got confused by those two facts
* In older versions, of IO::Socket::IP, it mentioned the Timeout option
  in the list of incompatibilities with IO::Socket::INET*.
  (This changed in versions > 0.25 (
* In recent version of the man page this warning has gone, but unfortunately
  Timeout  is not mentioned in the list of supported options either.

Paul,
from the mail above, I get it that Timeout is working in IO::Socket::IP.
Can you confirm?
Additionally, may I ask you to add Timeout to the documentation?


Thanks in advance (and also to Michiel for the correction)
Peter
