Socket Connection Timeout

In the code below.

If the timout value is 0 (newSocket(Address, 7010, 0); The wait time is "Total Time in MilliSeconds =1024" If the timout value is 1 (newSocket(Address, 7010, 1); The wait time is "Total Time in MilliSeconds =22"

Is there any default OS settings (Windows) which can reduce the waiting time for the timeout value '0'. Tried few registry entries LmhostsTimeout, TcpTimedWaitDelay with no success. Please help me in resolving this issue.

The default connection timeout varies per platform. It is around 55-75 seconds but it varies. On Windows it is controlled by a registry entry. Why do you want to change it? If you are writing the code, why can't you just always use a positive connect timeout?
