Pedro,

I can''t remember if I''ve replied to this or not, so if you
already got
a reply, my apologies. Been crazy busy for the last week or so.

There is currently no way to specify a timeout in the connection, but
that sounds like a great idea. A workaround would be to do something
like the following:

   require ''timeout''

   timeout_in_seconds = 5
   session = timeout(timeout_in_seconds) { Net::SSH.start(...) }
   ...
   session.close

I''ll see about adding that to the next version of Net::SSH.
