With non-GUI testing, I've seen JMeter 'hang' when the 'system under test' hangs due to some bug, but does not close the connection to the JMeter client.
You can try using sampler-specific timeout settings but I don't have any experience with those. The way I've done it is run JMeter from a Perl wrapper which forks off a watchdog process with a user-definable timeout period and waits for the JMeter processes to complete. If the watchdog finds that the wrapper process (and by implication, its JMeter child processes) are still alive at the end of the kill timeout period, a Perl library is used to kill the entire process tree. I hope to release related code in a couple of days (planned to earlier but hit issues in sourceforge - will try googlecode).
