tinc - Feb 2015 - Don't wait too much time (for tincd)

Hi!

I'm in China now and my Internet connexion is very bad. I ever use the 
best ADSL provider that I can have.

In some case (often), the connexion is lost. At the first time, tincd 
will wait few time and retry. But, this delay is increased if the 
connexion can't be made... so, it's quicker to kill tincd and restart
it.

How it possible to make tincd restart if the connexion can't be made 
after ... 30 secondes? and never wait more than 30 secondes.

I also use an SSH tunnel who works better, but I would like use tincd too.

With good and stable connexion, tincd works fine.

See you
GG

Just add the following line to tinc.conf:

MaxTimeout = 30

Thanks a lot.

I will let you know how this can do for connexion.

This should be on FAQ, because I can't found it when I searchid this 
config. May be too few searching...

See you
