Check connection and timeout

[Bob Sneidar]

Thanks Ralph, very handy, but is there a way to get the timeout to see if the command to set the timeout worked? I change networks frequently, and if I do not disconnect and reconnect to my SQL database, I run the risk of using a stale connection, and then I face the dreaded 60 second stall before I can proceed.

     put the behavior of stack"revLibUrl" into tLibUrlDriver
