Sun corba service set time out

Question

Hi im coding a corba client service using sun default library(without using any 3rd lib. e.g jacorb /visibroker). Is there anyway to set client timeout. This is to solve when server is down then my client won't hog the thread and keep the connection active. As of now if the host is down, i will wait forever, the timeout from sun is very unconsistence

Thanks a lot for your reply, I guess im kinda confusing. Maybe you can help me and enlighten me a bit. my problem here is i need to set timeout. With weblogic default timeout. THe time out is actually not consistence, from 0- 50 minute.
below is my snippet of code.
If im not setting any properties or system variable then the system will run default
code set 1.
myOrb = org.omg.CORBA.ORB.init(args, null);
System.out.println("After System org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass:"+System.getProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass"));
System.out.println("After System org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass:"+System.getProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass"));
-- print line result.
After System org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass:weblogic.corba.orb.ORB
After System org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass:weblogic.corba.orb.ORB
it still print weblogic.
code set 2.
Properties prop = new Properties();     
prop.put("org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass", "com.sun.corba.se.impl.orb.ORBImpl");
prop.put("org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass", "com.sun.corba.se.impl.orb.ORBSingleton");
//prop.put("com.sun.CORBA.transport.ORBTCPReadTimeouts);
myOrb = org.omg.CORBA.ORB.init(args, prop);
-- print line result.
After System org.omg.CORBA.ORBClass:weblogic.corba.orb.ORB
After System org.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass:weblogic.corba.orb.ORB
