+\begin{methoddesc}{connect}{host\optional{, port\optional{, timeout}}}
Connect to the given host and port. The default port number is \code{21}, as
specified by the FTP protocol specification. It is rarely needed to
specify a different port number. This function should be called only
once for each instance; it should not be called at all if a host was
given when the instance was created. All other methods can only be
used after a connection has been made.
+
+The optional \var{timeout} parameter specifies a timeout in seconds for
+the connection attempt. If is not specified, or passed as None, the
+object timeout is used (the timeout that you passed when instantiating the
+class); if the object timeout is also None, the global default timeout
+setting will be used.
