netstat and timers

Hi all,

I have been dealing with some connection problems between two hosts
(backup server <-> client) and I think they are related to connection
timeout...

Checking those connections (control and data) with 'netstat' command,
it's shown some timers (with '-o' parameter), but there isn't any info
in the manual page about their meaning (neither through Google):

tcp 0 52936 IP1:862 IP2:897 ESTABLISHED on (7.74/15/0)
^^^^^^^^^
looking in the netstat code, I haven't found any comment about their
meaning, just the names (but they haven't got any sense for me):

snprintf(timers, sizeof(timers), _("on (%2.2f/%ld/%d)"),
(double) time_len / HZ, retr, timeout);

Does anybody know what they mean (in particular, the second one 'retr')=
?
Could somebody send me a link or any clue?

Thanks in advance,
Cheers
