What should I be setting this to? I don't quite understand how setting a
timeout will fix this issue, could you explain? lftp isn't stalling for
very long while downloading and intermittent stalls in transfers ought to
be tolerated, so I wouldn't want to set it too low. And besides, the error
message "recv: SSL_read: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)" implies
that the peer shut down the connection, right? It seems in this case that
limiting the number of retries when the peer terminates the connection
would be better, since otherwise it gets that error message and retries the
transfer again and again forever.

Thoughts?
