This follow up is just a check-up on syntax.

Below is an extract of my latest crash:

Unusual System Events

Jun 10 06:01:13 eureka wwwoffles[962]: Timed out while reading from remote host. 
Jun 10 06:01:15 eureka wwwoffles[959]: Timed out while reading from remote host. 
Jun 10 06:01:48 eureka wwwoffles[965]: Connect fail [Connection timed out]. 
Jun 10 06:01:48 eureka wwwoffles[965]: Cannot open the HTTP connection to 
proxy.webone.com.au port 8080; [Connection timed out]. 


Am I correct in reading the logged `Timed out while reading from reading
remote host' as equal to `connect time out' and the logged `Connection
timed out' as equal to `socket time out'?

Or is the story more obscure?
