Hi there,

We use tincd over VSAT connections, and if the contract has been reduced to a 
bare minimum -and- the ship is moving, latency reaches 2 - 5 seconds (yes, 
seconds). Generally this is not a problem if you are patient (and most smart 
phones are), but tincd is slightly too fast in deciding that it is not going to 
work. We also use the tinc connection to check whether any traffic is possible.

Is there an option somewhere to set the connection timeout? I've already set 
the ping timeout to 15s and I would like to set the connect timeout to 15s as 
well.

From the ssh documentation:

    ConnectTimeout
            Specifies the timeout (in seconds) used when connecting to the SSH 
server, instead of using the default system TCP timeout.  This value is used 
only when the target is down or really unreachable, not when it refuses the 
connection.

So, if you need pointers as to how to implement this cross-platform, there you 
go :-)
