Timeout problem in Telnet

The read_* functions in Telnet (telnetlib) does not return properly
when I set the timeout value. Whatever value I set in the timeout
parameter and if the telnet server does not response, the read_* function
always returns connection timeout after about 2 minutes.

I am using Python 1.5.2 on IRIX 6.5.3.

Anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks

david
